“I love sharing my passion and enthusiasm for all things marketing. I’m incredibly grateful to Veronica Swindale, Managing Director at NESMA for giving me my first teaching job: DMI Digital Marketing. Veronica is a Newcastle legend, having taught many hundreds of marketers and communicators over the years, and has guided and supported me throughout.
She had a clear vision from the start and created a welcoming, hospitable and supportive environment for students and colleagues alike. She has built NESMA from an idea into a thriving hub of vocational learning and development in the years that I have known her and we now have students and trainees throughout the UK and internationally. NESMA is now the ‘go-to’ centre for all things marketing and communications in the North of England.
The pandemic hit the education sector hard, but Veronica and Lucy quickly transitioned the team and students to remote learning and we have been able to welcome more students from much further afield as a result. I look forward teaching, training and consulting under the NESMA umbrella for many years to come”.
