Digital Scholar opened its doors to aspiring digital marketers in September 2019. It all began with our founder Sorav Jain’s vision to further the reach of digital marketing among the common folk. As a A Quick view of How the program has been scheduled
Promising Beginnings
Everyone who signed up for digital marketing agency ready, doubt-clearing sessions were held every week. The scope of these sessions was to ensure that the students understood every concept of the T.
What would learning be without the chance to apply the skills on a practical basis? That’s why we regularly organized real-time projects for the students throughout the three-month module. We staged onsite visits for the students with clients such as JCS and WINK Salon so that they could get the full experience of dealing with clients as agency members.
The students were game for all the interactive activities that we conducted for them. They enthusiastically participated and learned a lot from the hands-on approach that we had on offer.
A Feeling of Community
Through our digital marketing training sessions, we strive to ensure that learning is kept fun at all times. That’s why we organized specific lessons to be imparted as games that the entire class could participate in. Our Instagram taboo session was a smash hit with the students and proved to be a very interactive method to teach how Instagram works as a platform.
Healthy competition is regularly encouraged at Digital Scholar. The bloggers in the house consistently compete with one another to get better numbers on their blogs, with the leaderboards being updated regularly. There are other activities that were conducted to bring a sense of community to the Digital Scholar family.
Our inaugural Diwali celebrations were conducted amidst much fanfare, and it wasn’t just about decorations and pretty lights. We conducted a special set of competitions for our scholars. There were prizes galore, from best dressed Scholar, down to the winners of the Adzap competition. At Digital Scholar, we like to celebrate in style.
It’s safe to say that, at Digital Scholar, you never truly are alone in the learning process. You learn as much on the individual level as you do working in a team. This mirrors how life is at a digital marketing agency and gives them a true digital marketing experience.
Expert Guidance
Our trainers are well-equipped and experienced to impart all the necessary digital marketing skills to the Scholars. Sometimes, though, you have to bring out the big guns. A way for the Scholars to learn the current trends in the field is to interact with the best minds in the business. In that interest, we organized interactive sessions with a few digital marketing gurus. These personalities are well-known names in the Indian digital marketing circuit and are always looking to push the envelope in terms of going digital. Some of the big names who visited Digital Scholar are:
- Abhishek Shah. This was Digital Scholar’s first guest lecture, and the students were super-stoked to interact with one of the game-changers in the field. Abhishek, in turn, was excited to have a face-to-face with our students, lauding our digital marketing institute as being one-of-a-kind.
- DMC event. This was even bigger and better than our first guest lecture. We managed to bring 9 big-ticket names in the business like Siddharth Rajsekar, Avi Arya, and Deepak Kanakaraju, to name a few, under one roof, for our Scholars to meet. Needless to say, it was an evening that was all things digital, with valuable insights and knowledge being shared with the Scholars. It was a Q&A session to remember.
Eminent digital marketers like Neil Patel had also shared their wishes for Digital Scholar, while also sharing their advice and tips for our students. It was indeed very heartening for us to receive support from the digital marketing fraternity on such a scale. Their support inspires us to be bigger and better with every step we take.
Rightful Place
The entire mission of Digital Scholar’s digital marketing training is to make aspiring digital marketers job-ready. So it’s only natural that we guide our students into their new jobs seamlessly, through dedicated placement training. Actual prep for the placements began weeks before D-day because the Scholars wanted to show up and do their best. Digital Scholar offers comprehensive placement assistance, with many companies (SocialBeat, WINK, and echoVME itself) offering placement in their organizations.
Placement training at Digital Scholar includes training in resume drafting, mock interview sessions, and video profile drafting. In other words, you will be 100% confident to attend any interview, if you’re a Digital Scholar.
So when the big day rolled around, expectations were high. But in the end, Digital Scholar’s maiden placement drive turned out to be a big success, with every company in attendance lauding the students for their proficiency. The first batch of Digital Scholars has, in fact, created a few success stories of its own, acting as proof that our method works.
At Digital Scholar, if you’re an avid digital marketer, we’ll point you in the right direction in terms of kickstarting your career. Do your best, and leave the rest to us!
