Choosing the right digital marketing training can feel overwhelming.
At SocialB, we understand that no two businesses, or learners, are the same. That’s why our training is not only built with relevance and real-world application at its core but also flexibility. We offer a wide range of learning options designed to help you build confidence, enhance your performance, and achieve results.
In this blog, we’ll answer the most common questions businesses ask us when considering digital marketing training.
Contents
Course Content & Structure
- “What topics do your courses cover?”
Our courses cover all aspects of digital marketing, from theory to specifics. Some of our courses have a specific theme, like Social Media for Recruitment, where we explore how to use social media to improve your brand’s employer presence and how to use social media to recruit successfully. Other courses, such as our Digital Marketing Masterclass, are much broader, covering various areas of digital marketing to help you build your digital strategy and gain an overall understanding of how to utilise digital marketing for your business.
If you need something specific to your industry or business, we also offer a bespoke course builder. Working alongside one of our training team, we can build a course that fits your team.
- “Are the courses beginner-friendly?”
Some of our courses, like Social Media for Business or sector-specific social media courses, are suitable for beginners who have very little knowledge. Our free webinars are also suitable for beginners.
Our other courses require a certain amount of working knowledge, but it may be possible to tailor a course so that it is suitable for you. Alternatively, a bespoke course might be the right choice for you. Bespoke courses can also cater for a mixed level of expertise within your team.
- “Do you offer certifications?”
All attendees receive a certificate confirming that they have attended and completed the course.
Practical Concerns
- “How much time do I need to commit?”
The amount of time you need to commit will vary depending on the course that you choose. Face-to-face courses require either one or two days to complete, depending on the course. Online courses are run weekly and would require 2.5 hours a week for at least 3 weeks. For bespoke courses, we can work with you to find the right course length and dates to fit with your team’s workloads and commitments.
- “What if I miss a live session?”
We fully understand that sometimes work commitments or life can get in the way, so our standard online courses are available as recordings after the session. However, we always encourage you to attend the live sessions so that you can fully benefit from the course experience, including interaction, live exercises and the opportunity to ask the trainer questions.
- “Do I need any tools or software?”
Most of our courses only require you to have the means to access the course and the platforms or tools that you need training on. Online courses are on Zoom, which is free to access as an attendee, so we also ask that you have the ability to access Zoom before the course. We will introduce you to tools during the course, but the majority will be free or “freemium” access. Any specific requirements for bespoke courses will be agreed upon before the course.
ROI & Career Impact
- “How will this training help my career/business?”
Whether you’re looking to train your team or just yourself, we firmly believe that SocialB’s courses will be of huge benefit.
It’s not only knowledge. Our team of expert trainers will build your confidence and your knowledge so that you can apply what you have learnt strategically in the real world.
- “Can I implement this while working full-time?”
Most of our attendees are working full-time when they attend our course. Online courses may have homework between sessions, but this is minimal and helps to deepen your understanding of the subjects covered.
- “What’s the cost, and is it worth it?”
We believe that our courses give you real value for money. All of our professional trainers are experienced in both the subject matter and delivering high-quality training. The cost will vary depending on the type of course you are attending, but all of our courses are designed so that attendees get as much as possible from their investment.
Why Social B’s Training Stands Out
Training is in our DNA. Unlike other agencies that offer the occasional course or create a course as a special request, SocialB has dedicated trainers with hands-on experience. Put simply, our trainers not only know the subjects but also how to train them.
Working alongside our digital team, they work hard to ensure that they are up to date and aware of the latest trends and marketing developments. Add to that our training team’s industry and work experience, and it’s easy to see why our training stands out.
