Introduction to Digital marketing
Digital marketers are those responsible for making sure you see the right ads for products and services you’re looking for, at the right time.
Much like an expert puppeteer, they’re the hands at work creating and placing ads on sites like Facebook and Instagram. Across the entire web, really.
Ever thought “how did that site know exactly what I was looking for?” It’s all in the magic of digital marketing.

If you’re starting out with higher education and don’t yet have experience in the field, a Bachelor Degree in Marketing will set you on the right path. You can select digital marketing subjects as part of your electives.
If you have experience in the field already and are looking to solidify your knowledge, you may be able to use your existing experience to enter a Master of Marketing or Graduate Certificate in Marketing. Our friendly student advisors can help you with this.
