Did you know that there are already special training courses for digital influencers? SETU (South East Technological University) has just created a new Bachelor of Arts degree in content creation and social media. The new course lasts four years and aims to provide influencers with enough content to master production for different platforms.
The university itself leaves no doubt about its intentions. “Do your family and friends complain that you’re constantly on the phone? Now is your chance to put all that screen time to good use and prove that you can have an exciting and successful career using your digital devices to connect with millions of people around the world,” it says in the course description.
The curriculum includes topics related to courses in social communication, such as media studies, public relations, marketing, ethics, copywriting, social psychology, photography, information technology, radio techniques, content production techniques for television and digital media, data analysis, and others.
However, there are some specific topics that influencer candidates might be most interested in: creative videos, celebrity studies, podcasting, and practical work experience. The options are comprehensive to enable students to deal with the digital world without fear.
When it comes to reasons for those interested in this area, the university provides a very impressive number. The related market generates around 21 billion dollars (more than 100 billion R$) per year.
The first class began classes in September this year. A new course is expected to begin in November this year.
