Key challenges

The course has excessive examples that wasted a lot of my time

This course was not what I expected it to be. The start was good but then the instructor started to mention a lot of examples of people working in the field which I believe became too much irrelevant. There wasn’t any guidance on how to develop hard skills. A lot of time was wasted. (Deleted A)

Learner’s Suggestions/Recommendations:

  • The course is fine but the data was not organized the way it should have been in the first place. This made me lose interest in the course. (Anonymous Learner)
  • The course should focus on actually teaching the skills rather than just mentioning the titles for specific skills. With that, the extremely pedantic breakdown of different digital marketing and e-commerce specialties was unnecessary. (Victoria H)
  • The instructor should have added more case studies, graphics, animated graphics, infographics, and wider context. (Guy C)

Is this Course worth taking?

We believe this course offers succinct knowledge of what digital marketing is. The course offers quite interesting quizzes and assignments to solve at the end of each module. The entire team did a great job delivering the course. So, we can say this course is worth taking and can be recommended to all those who have even slight interest in digital marketing and e-commerce.
