"I have received marketing training from Robert as I have recently acquired a business. I have no previous business experience and thus needed sound advice and guidance regarding all aspects of marketing. Robert has been invaluable; he listened, observed and acted upon the information gained whilst researching both the area and the target audience. Unlike other training agencies, he did not attempt to impose his own opinions but offered solutions to identified problems and suggested strategies for further improvement and advancement. His enthusiasm and motivation was encouraging and enlightening, I cannot recommend him highly enough!" Sue Hughes, The Harewood Clinic
"Having just completed the CIM Professional Certificate in June 2007, I am happy to recommend Robert. He was extremely supportive and flexible with his tutorials which really helped me to keep my coursework in the right direction and to meet my deadlines. The way in which he relates theory to actual business situations, particularly to my own organisation, really helped me to understand them and how they can be put into practice." Charlotte Muscroft, Marketing Manager, Beatson Clark plc
“I have recently (June 2007) completed my CIM Professional Diploma with Robert Chiswick Training and Development and I would definitely recommend him! Robert shows real enthusiasm in his lectures and the way he relates theory to real-life situations just makes everything seem so simple and make so much sense! He is extremely supportive to his students and always makes time for one to one tutorials which I found really helpful. I can highly recommend Robert Chiswick Training and Development and would like to take this opportunity to thank Robert for all his encouragement and support over the last year. Thanks Robert!” Angela Hollingsworth, Croda Chemicals
"I studied both the CIM Professional Certificate and Professional Diploma with Robert, and was amazed at how much more support I received with my coursework through regular one to one tutorials, than I did whilst studying for a Business degree at University. Robert's continued support, and wealth of both practical and academic experience in marketing, undoubtedly contributed to me being awarded the Top CIM Student of the Year Award for South Yorkshire, for two years running". Kimberley Green, visitBritain.org
"Icompleted the CIM Professional Diploma in 2006 / 2007 with Robert ChiswickTraining and Development. The course was excellent, covering, in addition to marketing, a vast arrayof other business areas and, as well as gaining a recognised qualification, it was great to studyareas that are useful and practical in a day to day workingenvironment. And, of course, it was well delivered by Robert!
I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Robert Chiswick Training and Development to anyone wishing to develop their skills further". Steve Brown, Commercial Director, Highlander IT and Telecom Solutions .
“I have known Robert as my lecturer for three years, in that time he has seen me progress from an Undergraduate in Marketing to a Postgraduate CIM Diploma student and finally to a Masters student in Strategic Marketing Management. I have no doubt that I would have found it difficult to pass any of these levels had it not been for the expert way in which Robert delivered the key points required and ensured they were retained by the students. However, irrespective of his undoubted ability to teach, his greatest quality is making students think through problems for themselves without realising it; by the end of the discussion they themselves have not only found a solution to a problem but are able to justify it. That is, he leaves students with a sense of achievement and the courage to pursue their beliefs”.
Macbool Ahmed, true marketer.
"Before I began training with Robert Chiswick I had been unable to pass any of the CIM exams but after an informative and interesting course I passed each of the exams with flying colours. I would recommend Robert as the best CIM trainer I have had, and believe me I have had a few!"
Rebecca Galvin, Marketing Coordinator, Corus
"I started my CIM training with Robert Chiswick and was immediately welcomed into the group. Robert has a real knack of connecting to people immediately and his enthusiasm for teaching and learning is infectious. He treats everyone as a fellow professional and takes an interest in our personal and professional achievements.
The range and breadth of his experience makes attending the seminars enjoyable - hard work - but really worth making the effort to get to. Robert uses stories from his many years as a professional marketer to illustrate the theory with amusing and practical examples.
I commuted from Sheffield one night a week and rarely missed a session. Results from his students are excellent - many, like me, succeed at their first attempt, despite not taking an exam for 20 years! If you need your CIM qualifications and want to enjoy the process more than you think possible, Robert Chiswick can support and help you get the result you want. Highly recommended!" Elizabeth Lye, Sheffield Hallam University
"I decided to update my Marketing skills and prepare for a source of income in my retirement. I enrolled on a CIM Professional Diploma in Marketing course with Robert. I was in my mid fifties and had not attended college for over 10 years. Robert was not only a good, informative lecturer, but he gave me a great deal of support and encouragement. It was a very steep learning curve for me, not so much with the content of the course which was very well delivered by Robert, but this was the first time I had had to complete assignments instead of exams - a complete change of style for me. Robert was instrumental in helping me to adapt to these changes. If you are an older person and would like to gain these Marketing qualifications, then Robert Chiswick is the person to help you achieve your goals". Viv Forbes, Business Link Humber
"Robert's teaching philosophy is the same whether at CIM or masters level. The customer relationship management approach he advocates for today's market place underpins his partnership approach to student learning". Mervin Straughan,StraughanConsulting
