The evaluation process emphasises strict assessor independence, expert moderation, and multi-layered grading to ensure fairness and reliability. Performance criteria are fully transparent, covering technical analysis, ethical reasoning, data-storytelling competence, and applied machine-learning judgment.

Modern marketing requires professionals who can interpret multi-channel campaign data, evaluate consumer behaviour using analytical models, design evidence-based strategies, assess risks associated with AI-generated content, and build resilient, data-driven customer-engagement pipelines.
