Digital Literacy, Certificate
Digital literacy means having the skills you need to live, learn, and thrive in a society where communication and access to information is increasingly through digital technologies — so many people’s lives are now defined by their devices. Expectations are different in the digital age as business culture has evolved, generating demand for interdisciplinary experts who straddle ethics, communications, business, and technology to guide the future development of the devices and websites in which we live out our digital lives.
Clark’s Certificate in Digital Literacy allows you to be uniquely poised as a thought leader in digital literacy and ethics within digital contexts, an area of expertise that is applicable across varied industries and sectors, and is growing in demand as digital channels dominate daily life. Enter forward-thinking organizations as a master digital ethicist, digital strategist, or other pivotal position. Shape business practices and outcomes that support a triple bottom line prioritizing people, profit, and the planet via a healthy digital society.
Advance your career, boost your earning potential, and become a more effective digital strategist. Our program is designed to give you the knowledge and skills to meet challenges — and the confidence of knowing you have these essential tools at your disposal.
