Marketing

The long-term success of a business lies in its marketing. Developing smart advertising strategies is what increases customer engagement and directs consumers to your service or product. Making valuable professional connections with customers and knowing how to handle consumer behaviours will guide you on the road to success. Using digital marketing skills and keeping up with social media trends can also give you a leg up. In these courses, you’ll learn how to organize marketing and communication plans to reach your target audience and make your organization stand out. 

Marketing programs

In our Marketing Communication micro-credential program, you will learn the building blocks of what constitutes good marketing, messaging, and you will develop strong communication and decision-making skills.

Take the Marketing course to gain a solid foundation and to learn more about business growth, or take the Social Media Marketing course to get a deeper understanding on how digital technologies can help your marketing efforts. If you’re looking to apply marketing knowledge to an global market, we also offer International Marketing.
