Who It’s For

Why Do This Course

Turn Your Feed Into Income

The course goes straight at scaling followers, lifting engagement and earning through direct sales and brand collaborations. If you already post, this is the business layer under it.

Upskill For Your Current Role

Marketing teams keep being handed social without being taught it. Twenty hours gives you the strategy, the content side and the analytics, so you can back what you post with a reason.

Build A Brand Of Your Own

For an owner or founder it covers building an online brand, working out who your customer is, and selling through Instagram rather than hoping the posts do it.

Where The Skills Fit

Where These Skills Could Take You

Every business with a shopfront now has a second one on a phone screen, and someone has to run it. The work is easy to picture. Planning the month, making the posts, replying to the comments, and showing the owner what moved.

Social Media Manager

Running the accounts for a business or a client. Strategy, content and analytics are the three parts of that job.

Instagram Media Manager

Instagram specifically, which is where the course spends most of its attention: brand, audience and selling through the platform.

Marketing Assistant

The social half of a marketing team's week. Knowing the algorithm and the analytics is what gets you trusted with it.

Business Owner

Doing your own social instead of paying someone else to guess at it. Building the brand and finding your customer are both covered.

Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every role is different, and some need more study or experience.

The Course

What You'll Learn

Six modules, built around strategy, content and the numbers behind both.

01
Strategy And The Algorithm
How the platforms decide who sees you, and how to plan for it.

Knowing what worked, so the next one works harder.
Analytics

Why This One

What Makes It Different

Here is what stands out in this course.

01
The Algorithm, Not Guesswork

Strategy and the algorithm are taught together. Knowing why the platform shows a post to more people changes what you make and when you post it.

02
Content People Stop For

A whole module on creating great content. The scroll is the competition, and getting a thumb to stop is a skill you can learn.

03
Numbers You Can Act On

Analytics closes the loop. You learn to read what worked, so the next post is a decision instead of a guess.

Good to Know

Common Questions

Do I need marketing experience?

None needed. There are no prerequisites. The college writes it for influencers, business owners and marketing professionals alike.

How long does the course take?

Around 20 study hours, at your own pace. Access is lifetime, so there is no deadline and you can come back as platforms change.

What does it cost each week?

The weekly plan is $15 a week, interest-free with no credit check. Enquire for the full payment options, including pay-in-four and upfront.

Is this mostly Instagram?

Instagram carries a lot of it. The outcomes on the page are about building an online brand, working with brands as an influencer and selling through Instagram. The strategy, content and analytics work transfers to whichever platform your audience sits on.

How are assessments done?

Short answer and multiple choice, with no timed exams. Retake them as many times as you need, and marking comes back within 1 business day.

Is this course accredited?

It is CPD endorsed, which is accreditation for professional development: you finish with 5 CPD points employers recognise and a Credly digital badge. It is not a nationally recognised qualification. That is a different thing. In social media, people hire on the accounts you have grown and the work you can show.

Can I get my money back if it is not for me?

Yes. There is a 7-day cooling-off period. You can switch to another course or get your money back.
