No requirement to be online at specific times

Life is unpredictable. That’s why your learning is fully asynchronous—no mandatory live webinars, no fixed login times. You engage with materials and assignments when it suits your schedule, whether that’s early morning before work, during a lunch break, or late at night.

This flexibility empowers you to stay consistent and productive, even during busy seasons. You’ll plan your study rhythm around deadlines, but you won’t be constrained by rigid timetables or conflicting time zones.

Study anywhere, even while traveling, with offline mobile learning

Take your classroom with you. Our mobile app lets you download study materials and watch lectures offline, so you can learn on the go—on flights, during commutes, or from remote locations. Your learning follows your lifestyle, not the other way around.

Whether you split time between cities across the Kingdom or travel internationally for work, your programme stays within reach. Read, watch, and reflect wherever you are, and upload assignments when you are back online.

Open-book assessments that emphasise application

Real marketing success is not about memorising facts—it’s about solving problems. Our open-book assessments mirror professional realities, asking you to integrate theory with evidence and data, and to justify your recommendations like a strategist or consultant would.

With this approach, you develop practical thinking, analytical depth, and persuasive communication that transfer directly to your role. It’s learning you can use immediately—and that your colleagues and clients will notice.

Learn from faculty who graduated from world-renowned universities

Gain insight from tutors and faculty who are graduates of globally respected institutions, including Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel, and Washington University in St. Louis. Their academic pedigree is matched by strong professional experience and a passion for teaching online.

Expect high standards, personalised feedback, and mentorship that challenges you to elevate your strategic thinking. You’ll benefit from a faculty culture that values critical inquiry, constructive debate, and real-world relevance.

Join a global classroom with alumni at leading organisations

Study alongside peers from more than 130 countries—a diverse community that brings new perspectives, market insights, and professional networks. Our alumni work for international organisations like Google, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens, Sony, IBM, Verizon, Dell, Aramco, United Nations, ICRC, The World Bank.

This network is invaluable for collaboration and career exploration. You will expand your global outlook, learn how marketing strategies adapt across cultures and sectors, and access connections that can open doors across industries and continents.

Flexible payment with up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments

Invest in your future with a payment structure that supports your cash flow. Our fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments, allowing you to plan your finances sensibly while you study.

This flexibility means you can embark on your master’s when your motivation is highest, without waiting for a specific budget cycle. You focus on learning and career growth while keeping your finances predictable.

Advance your marketing career in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is undergoing an unprecedented transformation, generating demand for marketing professionals who can build brands, drive digital growth, and communicate value across sectors.

Your training in segmentation, positioning, analytics, and omni-channel strategy equips you to shape campaigns that resonate with diverse audiences and stakeholders, including B2B partners, consumers, and international investors.

The momentum of Vision 2030—spanning mega-projects such as NEOM, Red Sea Global, and Qiddiya; the growth of entertainment, sports, hospitality, and tourism; and the scaling of e-commerce and logistics—creates powerful opportunities.
