GOALS
The Digital Media Skills Certificate is designed for anyone interested in learning how to use social networking in the digital media landscape. This program not only provides skills training, but also examines the theories behind new methods of conveying information, how audiences take in and react to this type of messaging, and how media must adapt its message.
As one of the only online programs of its kind, this graduate certificate is accessible to students from a wide variety of backgrounds, offering the opportunity to participate in graduate level learning on a flexible schedule.
The program is suited to wide range of students, including those without a prior background in digital media, mid-career professionals who left school before Web skills were taught and fresh graduates interested in advanced skills training. Read more
