Unique Program Experiences
One unique program experience offered by the BAM advanced diploma is the opportunity for students to gain practical experience in search engine marketing (SEM) and search engine optimization (SEO) by running live campaigns for real clients using Google Adwords and Google Analytics. This experience is made possible through Fanshawe’s collaborative relationship with Google and the Search Engine Marketing Professional Organization.
Another unique experience is that graduates will have the opportunity to pursue Google designations that are in high demand but not widely available. This provides graduates a competitive edge in the job market and prepares them for success in various marketing disciplines.
