DBS or Digital Skills Academy: Please help me decide which Digital Marketing Course?

digitalnative · 22-12-2012 07:28PM #1

Hi Guys

I've unfortunately been out of work for sometime and I want to upskill and get back in to the workforce.

I was thinking of doing a digital marketing course with either:

Dublin Business School http://www.dbs.ie/internet-marketing/online-marketing-digital-strategy

or

the Web Activate program with the Digital Skills Academy http://webactivate.ie/.

Has anyone done these courses and if so what did you think of them?

Really appreciate your inputs.

Regards

Digital Native:)

Hi Digital Native,

I've recently finished a 12 week Diploma in Digital Marketing with the Digital Marketing Institute. It's too soon to tell how much it will impact my success with job applications but I can say that I really enjoyed going in every week and I would recommend it to anyone. Most of the class were already involved in Marketing in some respect. I had no experience of Marketing before doing the course but I feel I really got a lot out of it. The lectures were very specific to digital and is heavy on practical techniques rather than theory so most of the content was new to the majority of the class.

It's just one evening (3 hours) per week.
