Course overview
Whether you are a business StartUp, an established business or you simply want to position your own personal online brand, you will need two things:
1. A strategy
2. The skills required to manage its delivery.
Our course in Practical Digital Marketing focuses on both the application of digital marketing techniques and the theory that underpins it.
On completion of the course, you will have the practical knowledge and skill-set to operate a multi-channelled digital marketing strategy, in a broad and meaningful way.
You will learn essential digital marketing skills to build your brands presence online - either through delivering an existing brand marketing strategy or building your own 'personal brand' objectives through digital channels.
We recommend bring a laptop so that you will be able to refer to online resources and practice using digital marketing platforms as part of your learning.
