Li Lian Lim, completed Post Graduate Program in Digital Marketing, “I ventured into this course, not really knowing how much I would learn, or whether it will be useful to me, or good value for money. However, I remember watching the video of the foundation course and thinking to myself, wow they have pretty good lecturers here. The content was so complete. I know people who have done marketing degrees but they haven’t learned what I learned in Simplilearn. There are so many things that I can do and know how to do now.”

He added, “This course is so practical, yet is grounded by good theory. I feel confident now to build a successful digital marketing strategy for any business that I know well.
