Membership Update - Your 2022 Wrap Up

‘Tis the season… in the spirit of all things frivolous, sparkly and heartfelt, I have created a round-up of our top Christmas ads of 2022 and why they cut the Christmas biscuit (so to speak)!

I also want to take the opportunity to wish each and every one of this 238,000 strong community a very Happy Holidays.

As we reflect on the year we’ve spent, we want to acknowledge that without your support, loyalty and enthusiasm for digital marketing, we wouldn’t be where we are today. We keep on growing. Every month we see 4,000 new members and over 1,000 new members that choose to register for one of our DMI certifications. 

Your appetite for learning, your love for our podcasts, webinars, toolkits, e-books, and articles make us want to work even harder for you. We love seeing you benefit from what we produce. So thanks to you, we love what we do! 

Which is why we are excited for 2023! We can’t wait to bring you more webinars, podcasts, toolkits, case studies, ebooks, roundtable discussions, short courses, CPD activities and much more.

Membership Community

If you haven’t already seen the benefits of the knowledge and breadth of experience within our community - we’ll also be making strides to make this more accessible to each of you. Those amongst you who are studying for the DMI PRO will find the guidance from those that went before you invaluable for example:  I just passed my DMI PRO exam with 70.65 %. I have some tips which may be useful for you. 

You might also consider joining an active discussion group on the topic of digital channels. 

Learning and development is at the heart of the DMI, which is why CPD is so important for digital marketing professionals. In 2023, we’ll be making a few changes to our CPD scheme - so that you are rewarded for your learning effort and can share your CPD more easily.  And I want to congratulate those Certified DMI Power Members who are actively participating in the CPD program in 2022 - that is 2,596 of you that have logged in excess of 7.9K learning activities. Since CPD launched, we’ve processed nearly 28K CPD submissions, which is just WOW!.
