What does a Digital Marketing Analyst Do?

If you’ve ever gone on Facebook and seen posts from a brand you follow or searched something on Google and seen ads relevant to that search pop up, that’s digital marketing! Digital marketers are responsible for connecting a brand with current or prospective customers in digital channels such as search engines, social media, email, and other websites.

Learner Testimonials

Generation programs allow people of all different fields or all different backgrounds – no matter where you’re at – to be able to move forward. I feel like I took a risk on myself, and Generation took this risk with me. My instructors allowed for that flexibility, which allowed me to essentially be on top of the work I had to do to jumpstart my career, and take on my responsibilities at home.
