Program Overview: What is Digital Advertising (Google Ads, PPC and Programmatic)?
Digital Advertising (Google Ads, PPC & Programmatic) is a hands-on program for marketers and media buyers running paid campaigns across search, social, and the open web. It covers Google Ads and PPC fundamentals, programmatic buying through DSPs, creative testing, and measurement with attribution. Participants learn to spend ad budgets where they actually perform.
Marketers build and launch campaigns in sandbox ad accounts from the first week. Creative labs test hooks and formats across display, YouTube, and Performance Max, while programmatic sessions demystify DSPs, real-time bidding, and deal types. Instructors audit each account structure, catching budget leaks and tracking gaps that silently burn spend. The program ends with a full-funnel campaign plan and launch capstone, where teams present creative, targeting, and measurement wired together.
Paid media punishes guesswork: untracked campaigns, broad targeting, and creative nobody tests drain budgets while competitors learn. The program teaches teams to structure accounts cleanly, test creative systematically, and read attribution with healthy skepticism. Every dollar gets a job, and underperformers get cut fast.
The capstone is a full-funnel campaign plan your team would actually launch: audiences, budgets, creative variants, and a measurement framework that ties spend to revenue. Media practitioners grill the plan on targeting logic and tracking integrity before approving it. Your marketers return with a launch-ready playbook and the discipline to kill what does not work.
The program covers the full campaign lifecycle: planning and budgeting, keyword and audience strategy, campaign builds, creative testing, programmatic deal setup, conversion tracking, and the weekly optimization routines that compound performance. Delivery is hybrid, virtual or onsite, and every module includes hands-on practice so skills transfer directly to your live accounts. Content adapts to your team's platforms, spend levels, and goals.
