With this subplan, you can become an account executive, advertising assistant, media specialist, or public relations professional.
Most marketing professionals hold at least an associate degree. In some cases, relevant work experience can substitute for formal education. However, even entry-level positions often require a degree or certificate to get started. A bachelor's degree, in particular, can lead to higher-paying roles with greater responsibilities, such as marketing management.
