This course is suitable for both early-career entrants and experienced professionals seeking to upskill in platform-led, AI-integrated and performance-driven social media marketing practice.
Completion of this diploma provides the opportunity to pathway into other RMIT courses, if certain criteria are met.
Benefit from the expertise of staff who not only teach but also work in industry, and learn to create smarter content, automate workflows and optimise campaigns using the latest AI tools.
Stay ahead in a rapidly evolving industry with the skills to adapt to emerging technologies and thrive in careers where AI and digital marketing go hand in hand.
Develop practical digital marketing expertise in social media strategy, content creation, paid advertising and analytics that employers value.
At RMIT you will be studying at an institution with expert teachers with strong industry connections in the marketing and digital marketing space.
RMIT offers a variety of learning and teaching approaches, including industry-simulated rooms where you will have the opportunity to understand, develop, launch and manage social media briefs and campaigns in class tutorials, workshops and other class-based activities.
Assessments may be conducted in a real or simulated environment using procedures, information and resources typical of a workplace.
Other assessment methods may include structured activities (including role plays, case studies, electronic forums), practical assessments, written and oral presentations, portfolios and projects.
Your assessments provide the opportunity for your teachers to provide feedback on the strength and weaknesses of your work, allowing you to improve your skills and develop as a lifelong learner.
The types of classes you have will depend on the course you’re studying. Classes are offered in various formats designed to provide meaningful engagement with staff, industry and peers and provide for access and use of spaces where learning can be applied and active, including an array of specialised equipment.
Most RMIT courses do not include passive large-scale classes such as lectures, instead the content traditionally provided in lectures is made available online. This may be in the form of readings, videos or other on-demand learning materials. This content will also support the basis of interactive learning that takes place in on-campus classes.
The world is constantly changing, and there are universal skills that can help you adapt to the evolving nature of work and global engagement.
