Seeing MBIR on a resume certainly gets our attention.

Doug Anderson, Senior Vice President, Public Affairs, Harris/Decima

“For us, the MBIR program has been an extremely valuable asset among new hires. Over the past few years, almost all of the people we have hired have come through the MBIR program and we have seen a dramatic improvement in how rapidly our new colleagues get up to speed.

We are finding that those who join us with both a university degree AND the MBIR graduate certificate require less training and can be playing roles on client projects almost immediately. Seeing MBIR on a resume certainly gets our attention.”

MBIR graduates are armed with the technical skills, background and know-how that are essential for success in the industry.

At Phoenix, we have strong respect for Algonquin’s MBIR program. The last two employees we hired came from the program. That, in itself, is the ultimate testimonial!

Not only do they exhibit the maturity and judgment one wants from an employee, MBIR graduates are armed with the technical skills, background and know-how that are essential for success in the industry.”

I highly recommend to any marketing research employer seeking diligent and well prepared candidates, to look no further than the Algonquin College MBIR program.

“While at TNS I conducted two thorough searches for candidates, one to work in a research consulting role, and the other to occupy a research operations position. Both positions were filled by MBIR graduates.

The MBIR hires came in armed with sound knowledge of the marketing research process from cradle to grave, and developed faster than their colleagues from different educational backgrounds. They are now high performing employees, and among the best of their peer group. I highly recommend to any employer in the marketing research industry seeking diligent and well prepared candidates to look no further than the Algonquin College MBIR program.”
