CME® - Certified Marketing Executive®

Apply here for certification

The Certified Marketing Executive program is ideal for professionals who are employed as a marketing manager, regional marketing manager, marketing director, Vice President of Marketing, Chief Marketing Officer or any individual or company owner responsible for marketing management and who has direct reports.  Marketing Educators and Marketing Consultants who specialize in marketing management may also apply. 

The Certified Marketing Executive Certification program will award the coveted "CME" designation which the certified professional can place on their business cards and stationery.  (Example: John Q. Roberts, CME) This designation is a great door-opener and conversation starter with clients and prospects.  Effective use of the designation on stationary, email signatures and websites is a great way to let your employer, customers, prospects and peers know that you are a true professional and that your business activities are guided by a signed sales & marketing code of ethics
