Overview

Product and Services Management Course

To ensure that the objectives set out in the marketing plan are met, it is essential that the marketing mix is developed and successfully targeted in the market place. A key element of the marketing mix is the product or the service a firm offers. We start this course on product and services management by defining a product and a service, and identifying some similarities and differences.

By the end of this course you will be able to:

  • define the elements of products and services

  • undertake product analysis to identify components of successful products

  • identify the unique characteristics of service products

  • detail the new product development process and explain the importance of its management

  • distinguish between products in different stages of the product life cycle and select appropriate management actions

  • identify key branding decisions.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
