NWACC adds two Marketing Analyst classes BENTONVILLE - The Corporate Learning Division's Marketing Analyst Program has boosted its curriculum with two new classes. Both classes have been added to the program's fall schedule.
"Advanced Analysis "is targeted to retail analyst professionals already working in the vendor community. The course requires advanced Microsoft Excel and Access skills. "It will help them work smarter not harder by harnessing the full power of MS Office," said James Thulin, NWACC Retail Programs coordinator. The Marketing Analyst Program will also introduce a new "Category Management "class this fall. "The course was developed by a group of seasoned category management professionals working in the retail supplier community," Thulin said. The course is open to analysts who want to learn about the category management process and others wanting to find their way into the category world, he said. Both classes start in September.
