What advice do you have for AMMCOM candidates who are hesitant about applying?

For mid-career marketers and advertisers, I understand that taking the time to invest in additional education can feel like a big commitment. However, I believe that the Solvay program provides a unique opportunity to upskill, gain a fresh perspective, and build a professional network. The program’s diverse group of professionals can also provide new insights and connections that can help you grow in your career.

For professionals who are already well-established in their careers, but who may not have a background in marketing or communication, I would describe the AMMCOM experience at Solvay as eye-opening, empowering, and transformative. The program can help these professionals gain valuable skills and knowledge to help them in their current careers or even transition into a new field.

Solvay Business School has earned a stellar reputation as a leading institution for business education with a long history in Vietnam. Choosing Solvay for my career development was driven by my friend-colleague who had done the same program before. First and foremost, the school’s faculty comprises renowned experts and industry professionals in Europe who bring real-world insights to the classroom. This ensured that the knowledge and skills I acquired were relevant and applicable to my professional challenges.

What advice do you have for AMMCOM candidates who are hesitant about applying?
To AMMCOM candidates who may be hesitant about applying, JUST DO IT. I advise embracing the opportunity with an open mind. Pursuing further marketing and communication management education is a strategic investment in your future. Solvay’s Advanced MMCOM program equips you with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate the dynamic marketing and communication landscape and opens doors to new career prospects.

Having doubts or uncertainties is natural, but remember that growth often lies outside our comfort zones. Embrace the challenge, trust in your abilities, and leverage Solvay’s supportive environment. The program fosters a collaborative and inclusive learning atmosphere, allowing you to engage with fellow professionals from diverse backgrounds and learn from their experiences. This exposure to different perspectives is invaluable and enhances the overall learning experience.

And it’s pretty fun. I mean the time you will spend on the coursework, not the final project or 24hr case. They will be painful, with tears of doubt and blood of disappointment. Been there, done that!
