Course Details
New media shapes every aspect of the media industry, from journalism to marketing, advertising, PR, and publishing. Whether you work on staff or freelance, promote your company, client, product, or yourself, it's increasingly important to stay up-to-date on the emerging trends that are reshaping our careers.
In our self-paced new media course, you'll learn how to write for the web, get connected with social media, start a blog, produce podcasts, and create online video. Work independently by completing lessons and assignments that will teach you how to translate new media skills to your job as you work at your own pace through our 6-step curriculum.
