The Academy course runs over six months and is designed to follow the buying and merchandising cycle. The course comprises:

• Eight "off the job" one day training modules specifically tailored to either buying or merchandising and the development of core personal skills
• The modules have been written by, and would be run by, a Buying & Merchandising specialist and a Training & Development professional
• This training is further enhanced by a specially developed web-based interactive distance learning package and continued online assessment
• A final "Presentation Assignment" would be completed by the delegates and presented to relevant company executives or to renowned Buying & Merchandising executives who have agreed to work with The Buying & Merchandising Academy

Where appropriate, the Academy can be aligned to your company's current business processes and the contents can be customized to use company specific terminology to aid delegates' learning application

The location of the Academy can be selected from our range of fully equipped facilities with delegates' convenience in mind or alternatively, it can be brought in-house
