We are working to ensure that consumers are at the heart of everything we do. Whether they’re aiming for higher studies or better careers in the future, we know that Indian learners today demand a world-class learning experience to accelerate their career pathways. Therefore, through our rich, credible, and personalized content, we are fueling their dreams and helping them #PrepareWell at every learning touchpoint throughout their lives.”

Online Internship with Certification

The brand film, conceptualized by the creative agency Bang In the Middle (BITM), talks about how digital learning solutions and content have made the process of preparation convenient and more accessible for everyone, thus highlighting the importance of partners like Pearson who can provide a strong support to learners throughout this process.

Sharing his thoughts on the campaign, Prathap Suthan – Co-founder & Chief Creative Officer, Bang In The Middle said: “It’s been a wonderful experience to be working with Pearson on this campaign. Through this exciting Brand film, we have tried to ensure that we create a communication which diffuses the hyperbole on the prevalent Education advertising, and keep it to a warm, believable, and genuine space, despite Vicky’s celebrity presence. The preparation and studying process that precedes the challenges of any exam is a sombre and a very personal experience. Yet the most important and unspoken part of getting ready – like the prepping that precedes an actor’s training for a specific role or shoot remains in the shadows. Our attempt has been to quietly bring out the proven and globally recognised legacy of Pearson’s expertise, to complement the preparation rigmarole of India’s students. Minus any loud gimmickry.”

The first film is digitally available on Social Media and has been released in Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada languages besides Hindi. Watch the latest social media campaign here. For more information, please visit: in.pearson.com
