Course structure
- Semester 1 – The first semester is dedicated to Content Strategy. At the end of the semester, you will have created a complete strategic brief: a concise report encompassing client context, challenges, objectives, and customer insights. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods are used to gather insights, facilitating a holistic understanding of content needs and journeys. In addition to developing strategic insights, you will also work on your own personal and professional development.
- Semester 2 - In the second semester, you focus on executing your first semester strategies, learning to transform strategic insights into actionable plans for content creation, publishing, and monitoring. Towards the end of the semester, you tackle a final assignment: developing a content and media strategy for an external client.
