Udacity Digital Marketing Nanodegree Reviews (updating in progress)

This review is updated continuously throughout the program. Yay I just joined the Udacity Nanodegree for Digital Marketing! I am such an Udacity and learning junkie LOL. What grabbed my attention was the line-up of partners, the real world projects and also Avinash Kaushik's presence. I wonder what's the oracle of Google Analytics doing promoting this course.

• First impression, clean beautiful videos, unlike some of the programming Georgia Tech videos Udacity has
• The partners really do show up early in the syllabus and seems like they will participate
• Though jobs are not guaranteed, there are mentions of hiring partners
• Classmates are young and energetic marketing veterans. Already very active on slack
• Meet the students use hashtag #ImInDMND on instagram
• Realworld like non-trivial business cases and owner / user statements
• What are the projects like? Udacity allows you to use Udacity as a real-world marketing project.
• Amazing speakers, famous authors and speakers including author of crossing the chasm, avinash kaushik Google Analytics evangelist
• Mentorship - mentorship is available. My mentor has been unresponsive and unhelpful so far. I do not recommend.
• Mini interviews with industry giants
• The Facebook Ad project is extremely useful. The real world project experience can have tangible results. It is resume worthy. I got a sizable view and conversion of which I am comfortable to talk about in future interviews.
• Does it directly translate into full time jobs? Probably not, Udacity took away the guarantee a long time ago. It does give exposure to Moz, Google Ads, which are not as accessible experience as Facebook ads and mailchimp, which any one can try on one's own.
