Why should my team and I take this course on Digital Marketing Measurement Strategy?

Higher Ed Digital Marketing Measurement Course for Teams

  • Not sure how to measure the work of your digital marketing/communications team due to the lack of clear measureable objectives?
  • Has your higher ed team never taken the time to define the necessary strategic foundation to measure (and do!) only what matters?
  • Do you need to rally cross-functional higher ed marketers around audience-focused goals for the digital marketing and communications efforts of your unit, college or university?
  • Do you need to refocus, re-energize and optimize the performance of your digital team?

If you don’t have a clear digital measurement strategy with specific audience-focused objectives aligned with your institutional goals, this course – with an innovative hybrid format – was designed to help YOU and YOUR team build the srtategic foundation you need.

This course for teams (2 to 5 people) on Higher Ed Marketing Measurement Strategy is a new addition to Higher Ed Experts’ Analytics Curriculum. Its design was informed by student feedback from our Analytics courses, the Higher Ed Digital Marketing Analytics Roadmap (HEDMAR) study findings, changing analytics practices, learning and cognitive research, but also shrinking attention spans and increasing demands on your time.
