The number of open jobs in digital marketing and e-commerce continues to grow as businesses move more of their operations and sales online. Having an online presence allows businesses to widen their reach and gives customers greater access to products and services. In digital marketing and e-commerce jobs, you work at the intersection of many trends: the technology platforms that people use to connect, the products that people are interested in, and the ideas that make brands stand out. 

Digital marketers help companies reach and engage with customers, build awareness, drive sales, and foster brand loyalty. They also measure, manage, and analyze the effectiveness of marketing campaigns and e-commerce sites, so that businesses can achieve their larger objectives. E-commerce specialists help design, create, and manage online stores. They also evaluate the success of online stores at driving sales or other actions by customers.

Google had long faced an issue that many other companies also contend with: We had open IT support roles, but not enough qualified candidates to fill them. So we built and tested a training program to provide pathways to jobs in technical support at Google for people with no college degree or experience. In 2018, Google launched the IT Support Certificate so that this training could be available to everyone. Since then, thousands of people have completed the program. In the United States, 75% of certificate graduates report a positive career outcome (e.g., new job, promotion, or raise) within six months of completion.²

When we saw the positive impact this program was having on people all over the world, we expanded into additional fast-growing, high-paying career fields: cybersecurity, data analytics, digital marketing & e-commerce, project management and UX design. Built and taught by Google, these certificates prepare people from all backgrounds for jobs in fields with great demand for qualified candidates. No degree or previous experience is required. Graduates get the chance to connect directly with over 150 U.S. employers who are accepting Google Career Certificates for open jobs.

This certificate is currently available globally in English. We are working on adding more languages soon. Some tools - like the employer consortium - are only available in the United States at this time. Please check back here for updates.
