Course Objective

Looking to get a head start in your career, while still furthering your education and deepening your skills in digital content marketing? The Work-Study Programme (Digital Content Marketing) (WSProg-DCM) can be your answer.

Jointly offered by Singapore Polytechnic (SP) and Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS), the WSProg-DCM is a 12-month work-study programme created out of a convergence of three industries: Media, Marketing and Info-communication Technology. The programme is targeted at motivated fresh polytechnic graduates who want to stand out from the crowd by jump-starting their full-time careers with WSP companies (with full pay), while simultaneously receiving sponsored part-time structured training in digital content marketing from SP and SUSS.

The WSProg-DCM is designed to deepen the skills and knowledge of participants in Digital Content Marketing, through structured institutional-based learning, complemented by on-the-job training by participating employers.

Content Marketing is “a strategic marketing approach focused on creating and distributing valuable, relevant, and consistent content to attract and retain a clearly defined audience — and, ultimately, to drive profitable customer action” (Content Marketing Institute).
