The options for learning digital marketing skills are endless. There are college courses, online courses that range in price from free to $1000’s including custom training, workshops, certification programs, and then there’s real-world experience to support your career path in digital marketing. But we all have limited time and resources, so how do you choose? Let’s compare a 4-year college to a digital marketing certificate that takes far less time to earn. Just looking at the time and money alone, getting certified seems much more efficient and effective. But how do you know if a digital marketing certificate is really worth it?

What we’re really talking about here is ROI. So to answer “is it worth it”, you must know the results you can gain from getting certified.

Benefits of a Digital Marketing Certification

• Level up your Skillset – A quality digital marketing certification program will focus on the tactical skills you need to execute a successful digital marketing plan that drives results. Certification programs dive deeper into the mechanics of how digital marketing strategy and tactics work. You’ll feel more confident when you learn more about digital marketing and social media.
• Recognized as an Industry Standard – As companies search for talent, they are partnering up with accreditation services to pre-qualify their applicants. A digital marketing certificate can help you land a job.
• Advance your Career – We’ve seen this first hand when our students achieve a certificate from one of our digital marketing or social media marketing certification programs. They get raises and promotions.
• Cost-Effective and Time-Efficient – When compared to a 4-year college degree, a digital marketing certificate will take less time and cost far less than most college programs.

If you’re ready to advance your career now and start driving results for your business, then a digital marketing certificate is a smart investment.

When choosing a digital marketing certification course, consider the following, and choose wisely:

• Is the course all theory or do you learn by doing?
• Are there supporting resources, guides, and materials to help you learn?
• Does the course offer 1:1 time with a live expert?
• Is it accredited or recognized in the industry?
• How does the cost compare to other digital marketing certification programs?
• Are there options to specialize your certification in areas such as SEO or social media?
• What do others have to say about the certification course? Check the online reviews.
• What are the credentials of the trainers who teach the digital marketing certification course? Are they seasoned experts with real-world experience? If you Google them, what do you find?
