The Madrid Chamber of Commerce has announced the launch of the 56th edition of its Advanced Course in Sales Management and Marketing, a program that has established itself as a key tool for professionals looking to advance in their careers while continuing to work. In a business environment where experience doesn’t always translate into promotions, training becomes essential. A report from LinkedIn Learning reveals that over 60% of active workers consider their lack of specific knowledge a barrier to internal promotion.
The course, starting in October, has prepared more than 1,200 students over the last 15 years, offering dual certification—academic and professional—thanks to its collaboration with King Juan Carlos University. It has become a benchmark for those seeking leadership positions in fields such as sales, marketing, or business development.
Most participants are not looking to reinvent themselves but to unlock new opportunities in their career paths. Many seek to take on greater responsibility or specialize in client and sales team management. The Chamber’s Business School explains that this program is specifically designed for active professionals who wish to enhance their profiles.
Notably, the course emphasizes practical learning, combining in-person classes every other week with streaming options. This hybrid model allows students to balance their work life with their education while ensuring high academic quality and a strong connection to the business world.
The program’s content covers topics from market research to pricing policies, leadership inclusion, planning, and digital marketing. Special emphasis is placed on contemporary tools such as artificial intelligence applied to marketing and the use of indicators for decision-making, taught by a faculty of active professionals who share their real-world experience.
Former students of the course have shared testimonials about the positive impact it has had on their careers. One noted that the training provided the structure to make more strategic decisions, enabling them to evolve from managing operational accounts to leading proposals for new market opportunities.
In addition to academic training, the Chamber offers an active job board and advising for entrepreneurs, fostering a conducive environment for networking. For an investment of €3,100, which can be subsidized through FUNDAE, participants not only gain knowledge but also build a valuable network of contacts.
A significant statistic reflecting the success of this program is that 99% of students are employed in the sales or marketing field six months after completing the course. The 56th edition of the Advanced Course in Sales Management and Marketing retains its classic essence while incorporating a renewed perspective: today, professional advancement depends not only on seniority but also on leadership ability, adaptability, and critical thinking skills. These abilities, they assure, are trained, sometimes in the classroom.
