Strategy, account management + creative process – AdSchool set to launch new courses for 2016
With increasing demand from industry for relevant, contemporary and practical learning opportunities, The Communications Council has now announced eight courses have been added to the 2016 AdSchool training calendar, with several more in development for later in the year.
Courses deliver industry-recognised training for people working in advertising and marketing communications. Students learn by doing with up to date case studies and practical scenario experience, sharpening their skills to deal with the demands of a dynamic creative business.

Says Tony Hale, CEO, The Communications Council: “We’ve received strong interest from agencies across Australia this year in our AdSchool program, particularly in the area of Brand Strategy and Development, which has led to the same program running a second time in Sydney as a result. AdSchool is deliberately versatile to enable us to respond to our members’ needs – we therefore encourage agencies to continue to register interest for courses that they would like to see running in their state.”
Full AdSchool timetables for NSW, VIC, QLD, WA and SA can be found on The Communications Council website. AdSchool forms part of a broader professional development offering which also includes internationally recognised IPA online qualifications and residential courses, AWARD School, and an industry graduate program.
