However, it is important not to be misled. What sense does it make for a company to offer a free Social Media Marketing Course?

No one has yet managed to answer this question. Just make a simple comparison. Would you buy a Rolex for 300 euros?

How to choose a free Social Media Marketing course

 

Free social media manager courses provide basic training, so to get the right technical skills and embark on this career, you need to look for a paid course that is more suitable for you. Just go to the Google search engine, and you will be spoilt for choice.

How to orient yourself in this landscape? First of all, you need to know what Social Media Marketing does, so that you can choose the one that offers you the right knowledge. A word of advice: consider these four essential points

  • course content and objectives
  • duration of the course;
  • training provider;
  • cost.

 

You need to make a mix of these four factors to find the Social Media Marketing course that best suits your needs. Cost will be the last thing to consider. The first thing to ask yourself is what you want to get out of the course. A training, a certification or a qualification?

 

 

Content

In a free online Social Media Manager Course, you have to evaluate the content offered. The use of tools and software such as Google, Facebook, Instagram, WordPress, etc. is essential. By the end of the course you should be able to:

  • plan, create and manage social advertising campaigns
  • devise the social strategies of the brand you work for
  • draw up an editorial plan
  • develop and manage online communities
  • produce written, image and video content appropriate to the type of company being promoted and capable of stimulating interest, interaction and sharing
  • use analytics tools to measure the results achieved
  • manage digital PR involving influencers and online publishers of reference.

 

 

Course duration

The more in-depth you want to go, the longer the course will be. And this is another piece of advice: be wary of training course proposals that last a weekend. Two days of lessons do not make you a Social Media Manager. On the contrary, you need time and a good balance between theory and practice.

In fact, the practical part should not be missing at all. It is by interacting directly with the social network that you acquire the skills to become an expert in the field.

Taining institution

In order to be a successful Social Media Specialist, the other aspect that should not be overlooked is the choice of training institution. Schools, universities, specialised companies – which is best?

certification-social-mediaSocial Media Specialist CertificationRely on reviews. In the world of the web, information by word of mouth goes viral. The opinion of others is a great way to assess whether you are addressing the right person.

Also consider lecturers: find out who will be asked to teach you, check their LinkedIn profile or look for a CV online. In short, make sure they are experts in the field. Finally, consider the location of the institution or school you choose. Without taking anything away from all the cities in Italy, the best offers are in Rome and Milan for a very simple reason. It is in these metropolises that the meeting of job supply and demand takes place.
