BANGALORE, India, Apr 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Social Beat is excited to announce the launch of DigiGrad, a digital marketing training and skill development initiative. The aim is to bridge the gap between the demand and supply in the digital marketing job space, especially because an estimated 2 million digital marketing will be created by the end of 2020.
"There is definitely a shortage of experienced digital marketers, as brands and marketing agencies look for talent. At DigiGrad, our goal is to enable young professionals and students with practical and best-in-industry programs to help them grow faster in their careers. We define our success with our student's success," said Suneil Chawla, Co-founder of Social Beat.
Upskill and Upscale with DigiGrad
With an in-depth curriculum and a rigorous training methodology, DigiGrad is offering programs that are tailor-made for marketers, beginners and entrepreneurs alike. Currently, it offers online training and plans to initiate an offline training delivery centre in Bangalore. Additionally, the training company also plans to expand to Chennai in the coming months. DigiGrad is kickstarting its online programs with byte-sized modules starting from just INR 999 onwards. It has also started conducting online and classroom customised corporate workshops and webinars.
The flagship program is the Certificate Program in Digital Marketing which is a 360-hour program, spanning across 3 months and comprising online content, certifications, internship/live projects as well as classroom training, post the lockdown.
"With only 35% of internet penetration in India, the next 10 years for digital marketers is going to be very exciting. As digital marketing scales, the demand for talented individuals will exponentially increase. This is where DigiGrad comes in. Our courses are structured in such a way that they are practical, which will make our graduate industry-ready. With our modules, we aim to skill 10,000 digital marketers in the next 12 months," said Vikas Chawla, Co-founder of Social Beat and DigiGrad.
With customized programs that cover digital marketing end to end, DigiGrad aims to train professionals, marketers and students to help them drive the marketing strategies for companies. The course can empower entrepreneurs and business owners to set up robust digital marketing strategies for their startups.
Abhishek Kumar, who heads the DigiGrad business vertical said, "Apart from having a foolproof curriculum, our programs also follow Harvard style case study based learning methodology, assured live projects & internships at a Google Premier Partner Agency and/or leading startups & top brands and 100% placement assistance."
