Digital marketing courses in Minnesota
28 digital marketing programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free
15 schools offer these digital marketing programs, and Minnesota has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did.
Search marketing strategists, with job titles such as digital marketing strategist and social media specialist, help content and products get seen online: they study how people search, run online campaigns and track the results. About half of the people in the job say a new hire needs a bachelor's degree, and about a fifth say an associate degree.1
In Minnesota, 8 of the 28 programs take students without a high school diploma, 19 ask for a diploma or equivalent and 1 asks for earlier courses first.
By kind, the 28 programs here are marketing or digital marketing (associate degree, 10 programs), digital marketing certificate or course (9 programs), marketing certificate or course (4 programs), social media marketing course (4 programs), and 1 more of one other kind.

How to pay for digital marketing courses in Minnesota
WIOA funding can pay for digital marketing courses in Minnesota

Where the Minnesota digital marketing program numbers come from
Which Minnesota digital marketing programs are on this list?
These are the digital marketing programs Minnesota approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act), as reported to the US Department of Labor for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).9 The list here covers programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what Minnesota offers.
How the prices and results of Minnesota digital marketing programs are measured
Prices are tuition and required fees for someone paying without workforce funding, as the school reported them; check the current price with the school. Results describe students who left each program in recent years, so they are no guarantee, and the yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate. A program without a "Trained with WIOA funding" line may still take WIOA students. Where a field was left empty or withheld, the page says "Not reported", and "Left out" where a figure was filed but failed one of our checks; nothing is estimated to fill a gap. Where the numbers come from explains each figure in full.
