U of Digital, the leading education provider for the digital advertising and marketing technology industries, today announced a new relationship with Nielsen, a global leader in audience measurement, data and analytics. With this agreement, Nielsen is making U of Digital’s award-winning digital marketing curriculum and expert intelligence available to its global employee base in support of the company’s commitment to continuous education.
“Nielsen has long pioneered our shared belief that knowledge is power, which is underscored by the investment it has made in ensuring its global teams have access to our continuously refreshed expert-led courses and training on the exploding cross- platform TV ecosystem,” said U of Digital founder and CEO Shiv Gupta. “We couldn’t be more excited to collaborate as we help Nielsen strengthen its already incredible training programs.”
“Working with U of Digital to access their global Expert Network and increase the breadth of the knowledge and training we provide to our teams at every level was a no- brainer. heir courses, workshops, e-learning and other programs were already popular with our team, some who also lead several of U of Digital’s training programs,” said Nielsen’s Senior Vice President of Customer Experience Ryanne Laredo. "Nielsen leads the market, and one way we do that is by making sure our teams have access to the best expertise in the business. TV is changing fast, and with U of Digital in place, we can deepen our ability to serve and guide our clients.“ While U of Digital and Nielsen’s relationship provides the measurement leader with access to the full breadth of the education leader’s programs, Nielsen team members rated U of Digital’s cross-TV programs among the most desirable in the short term. Laredo believes that is because of the heavy demand her team gets for all-things TV across the marketplace.
During CES, members of the Nielsen and U of Digital teams will be showcasing the value of their relationship in a complementary event they have designed to share their collective and unparalleled insights across TV with 10 of the largest TV companies and their agency partners.
