So many familiar, marketing "landscapes" seem to be morphing before our very eyes. And at a pretty fast speed.

Not to mention that what was not-so-long-ago considered "content" has dramatically expanded from TV and Print "copy" to any and all things interactive-digital. But what about marketing training?
