11279NAT is the nationally accredited Advanced Diploma of Marketing automation. It prepares you for work as a marketing specialist. It is current on the national register, with no earlier version recorded. About 1,710 marketing specialist jobs were advertised in June 2026, down 12.8% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Advanced Diploma of Marketing automation are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035 and enrolments are rising. Job ads in June 2026 were down 12.8% on a year earlier and the official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Employers are posting fewer marketing specialist jobs than a year ago. About 1,710 marketing specialist jobs were advertised online in June 2026, down 12.8% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 21,700 job ads, while 285 people were training in the course nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
