Nicole grew up in Lausanne and initially trained as a printer in her family's business. She then studied polygraphy at a technical college and took over the management of the pre-press department. Since then, she has continuously built up the business with digital printing and online services and today her family business is one of the leading providers of print-on-demand solutions in her region.
A year ago, exactly on her 32nd birthday, she was offered the position of Head of Print and Online Marketing by a global provider of document management, print and online solutions. She accepted the offer immediately, but on the condition that she could complete further training to become a marketing manager. She has been attending the extra-occupational courses for six months and is looking forward to getting off to a flying start in her new job after passing the higher professional examination as a federally certified marketing manager.
Financial benefits of further training to become a marketing manager
