nesma is now a fully licensed SOSTAC® Certified Training Company.
This new partnership with PR Smith expands our resources to help businesses and their employees build a roadmap for success through better planning.
As one of the leading centres for the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) and Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR), we find that the SOSTAC® programmes are a great way to get your teams on the same page and complement any existing CIM and CIPR qualifications your employees may have.
There are two qualification levels to choose from:
- PR Smith’s SOSTAC® Principles | Intermediate
For people relatively new to the planning process (6-hour
delivered programme) via live webinar. - PR Smith’s SOSTAC® Certified Planner| Advanced
For experienced practitioners (9-hour delivered programme) via live webinar.
Both programmes use nesma’s special interactive live discussion webinars to ensure you can apply the theory directly to your organisation. Our exceptionally experienced, highly qualified and well-connected tutors will facilitate these and offer in-house master classes for teams. PR Smith may join us as a guest speaker at some live online events. You can also choose the online-only version option.

The training programmes take you through the six-step process required to get better results from your planning process.
- Situation Analysis – Where are we now, and what’s going on around us?
- Objectives – What are we aiming to do in line with corporate goals and objectives?
- Strategy – How might we get there? Which options are open to us based on our research and market knowledge?
- Tactics – How might we deliver our strategy? What is the best marketing or communications mix for us to use?
- Action – How can these tactics be implemented to the best effect, bearing in mind the resources available?
- Control – What and when do we measure in line with our SMART objectives? How do we know that we are succeeding?
The reality is that effective planning can be enhanced and made easy when using a consistent framework to support the translation of critical analysis and strategic thinking into actions. And that’s exactly what the SOSTAC® planning framework does. The programme is designed to ensure you get the best business results.
PR Smith’s SOSTAC® can be applied to any industry or sector and is the most practical way of remembering and applying the components of a comprehensive marketing plan.
