Overview

Every click, visit, and conversion creates data, but turning that information into better marketing decisions takes the right skills. As artificial intelligence reshapes how organizations analyze performance and personalize experiences, marketers need a practical, responsible approach to analytics and AI adoption.

In this course, you’ll explore digital marketing analytics, website tracking, privacy considerations, campaign metrics, reporting, and data-informed strategy. You’ll use Google Analytics 4 and examine pixels, tags, UTM codes, A/B testing, artificial intelligence tools, customer segmentation, and user experience.

This live online micro-credential course combines discussions, research activities, case studies, and applied assignments. You’ll identify website analytics tools, analyze Google Analytics 4 metrics, prepare a stakeholder report, compare AI tools, and assess opportunities to enhance user experience.

By course completion, you’ll be prepared to interpret marketing data, communicate performance insights, select analytics and AI tools for different needs, and recommend informed improvements to digital strategies and customer experiences.

This course is ideal if you:

  • work in marketing and want stronger analytics and reporting capabilities
  • create content and want to make more data-informed decisions
  • own a business and need clearer insight into digital performance
  • are new to marketing analytics or AI and want a practical foundation.

There are no prerequisites for this course.

  • examine the role of digital analytics in marketing
  • identify tools for analytic tracking in digital marketing
  • track digital marketing data results using analytics
