Acclaimed Miami Ad School Set to Launch the Next Generation of 'Mad Men' (and Women) With New PRO Program
The School Now Offers One-Day Workshops for Professionals Looking to Sharpen Their Industry Skills
NEW YORK, April 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The prestigious Miami Ad School has launched its latest program, called PRO, from one of its newest campuses, in Brooklyn's trendy and thriving Dumbo neighborhood. Miami Ad School PRO caters to marketing professionals looking to quickly gain knowledge through short-format, daylong seminars in a broad range of creative and strategic marketing topics. The program will soon roll out to Miami Ad School's other global locations.
With job seekers these days currently engaged in something of a romance with the communications industry, due to factors such as the cult devotion to AMC's "Mad Men," Miami Ad School's growth is both timely and fortuitous. PRO has much to offer those who are already working, whether in advertising or another marketing-related field, and want to give themselves a competitive edge to further their careers or explore new options.
"PRO was created based on the overwhelming requests we received from working professionals looking to hone their talent and enhance their skills to better their career," said Pippa Seichrist, founder of Miami Ad School. "Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a freshman in the industry, everyone is looking to stay competitive in today's unsteady economy. PRO is designed to do just that—to help you get ahead of the curve."
With campuses in more than 12 international cities, Miami Ad School is the most-awarded ad school in the world. The school's high-profile reputation attracts the industry's leading professionals, who lend their experience and insight through one-day seminars covering the latest trends in advertising, digital, mobile and social media, spanning account planning, creative direction, art direction, copywriting, interaction design, technology and PR.
Miami Ad School New York is primed to serve the intersection of education and industry with one of the most innovative programs in the world in a location—Brooklyn's Dumbo section—that has been hailed recently for its creative spark, inspiring comparisons to Madison Avenue in its heyday. The Brooklyn campus, like all of Miami Ad School's locations, runs on a business calendar and continues to bring top industry professionals in as instructors and guest speakers.
"With New York being a major hub for communications and creative enthusiasts, it was only natural for our Dumbo location to serve as a prime launching pad for PRO," said Seichrist. "Our goal is to expand PRO to all of our locations. We're already seeing a growing interest for the program internationally."
Miami Ad School, founded in 1993, offers innovative education programs that prepare students for the "real world" of advertising. Miami Ad School offers students two-year programs in art direction, copywriting, digital design and photography, as well as two 12-week boot camp programs for account planning and communication planning.
