Digital Asset Management - Bronze Certificate

Digital content surrounds us in our professional and personal lives. The digital media boom has opened a flood of rich media content, including photos, video files, audio clips, animations, and many others that have become components of organizational assets. Organizing, classifying, and retrieving these assets is a challenge for organizations today.

Digital Asset Management (DAM) is the practice of making such content accessible and available for all stakeholders within and beyond an organization. The need for effective management and retrieval of digital artifacts from corporations to museums continues to evolve and grow.

Whether you are new to DAM or a seasoned veteran looking for advanced and continuing professional education, the suite of DAM Certificate programs is for you as you skill up into the world of DAM.

Start your journey with the DAM Bronze certificate program. Cohorts begin in January, April, July, and October. An internationally renowned team of instructors teaches your cohort through 100% online, flexible, asynchronous, and self-paced coursework. Your busy lifestyle will allow you to complete your coursework around your schedule from across the globe.

In addition to the rich course content, your enrollment in this certificate program will open a new world of networking opportunities through regular webinars, colloquia, and access to a private LinkedIn Group filled with resources, discussion, and an active job board, all designed to leverage your learning for your professional next step.

Upon completing the Bronze Certificate, in addition to your transcript and certificate, you will be invited to the spring or fall, "Stepping Stone Dinner" taking place in Los Angeles or New York City.
