It has been shown, through recent in-depth marketing research, that marketing departments and companies lack a strategic approach to online initiatives.
This Forrester study (How Marketers Can Transform Their Business With Online Marketing) commissioned by Omniture emphasizes that strategy skills are the most important skills for an organisation to consider when interacting with clients or prospects online. What's clear from this study is that online marketers must go beyond their traditional role as the owner of the online presence and content. They need to begin focusing on customer behaviour and insight. This requires marketing organizations to bolster their current skills. They need to include strategists and analytically-focused talent that can understand consumer behaviour. Conversion Online offers a revolutionary training course focussed on developing competencies within your organisation.
About the Information Superhighway Certification
The Business Driver's License to the Information Superhighway is an assesment based training course. The course is broken into three modules that are tested online after the course. Delegates also obtain an attendance certificate for each module. Each module is one day from 8am-3pm and the entire course is three days.
Leila Moonda of the BEE Institute clarifies the skills development benefits: ?Companies that register black staff as delegates of the Internet Driver?s License will be able to claim the expense as part of their BEE Skills Development spend. Further, the training is assessment based; Conversion issues successful delegates with a certificate, so the training is not subjected to the 15% cap on uncertified training.?
