Choose the format and schedule that fits your needs:

Part-time

The Certificate in Digital Marketing and the Certificate in Content Marketing is delivered on a part-time basis. Each course in the certificate entails online asynchronous coursework as well as one weekend (Saturday and Sunday) of Live Online that allows you to engage and interact with industry-expert instructors and with fellow students in real time.  Online asynchronous coursework allows you to study from home and balance family, work, and other commitments.

Full-time

In Ontario, gatherings are restricted, and no university is offering classes in person for the foreseeable future. When the situation changes and it is once again safe to offer face-to-face instruction, full-time programs will make the transition back into the classroom.

Until then, this program will be offered in our “live online” format, which offers students the structure and group interaction of a face-to-face experience without travelling to York’s campus. Our live online classrooms enable students to hear and interact with the instructor and other students like in a normal classroom.
