Marketing & Management Pathway
Marketing and Management is one of three pathways in the Marketing Cluster. Marketing is the process responsible for identifying, anticipating and satisfying customer requirements in a manner that is profitable for the business. Marketing management involves the organization and coordination of the activities of the business which is aimed at achieving defined objectives. This growing demand for marketers by U. S. companies will cause employers and recruiters to compete fiercely to attract top marketing candidates over the next decade. Students participating in Georgia’s Marketing and Management Pathway will obtain knowledge and skills in management and entrepreneurship, professional sales and marketing, buying and merchandising, marketing communications and promotion, marketing information management and research, distribution and logistics, global marketing, and e-marketing. This pathway culminates with an opportunity for students to take the MBA Research “A*S*K Marketing Concepts” end of pathway assessment or the Oklahoma Consortium (MAVCC) “Marketing Education Manager Trainee” end of pathway assessment. Students may earn a credentialing certificate.
