Training Program in Building Digital Marketing Strategies with Artificial Intelligence
1Summary
Digital marketing used to mean choosing the right channel and writing good copy for it. Today, the channel itself decides what a user sees before a marketer does — recommendation engines, ad auctions, and search algorithms are all making micro-decisions in real time, and a strategy that ignores how those systems work is competing blind.
The Arab British Fellowship Training Academy built this programme to equip marketing professionals with the conceptual grounding to work with AI systems across the customer journey — from data and automation tools through search, social, and campaign performance — delivered as structured knowledge without case studies or practical exercises.
