23 digital marketing programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free

14 schools offer these digital marketing programs, and Wisconsin has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did.

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 Wisconsin, 10 of the 23 programs take students without a high school diploma and 13 ask for a diploma or equivalent.

By kind, the 23 programs here are marketing or digital marketing (associate degree, 10 programs), digital marketing certificate or course (9 programs), marketing program (level not stated, 2 programs), social media marketing course (1 program), and 1 more of one other kind.

Where the Wisconsin digital marketing program numbers come from

Which Wisconsin digital marketing programs are on this list?

These are the digital marketing programs Wisconsin 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 Wisconsin offers.

How the prices and results of Wisconsin 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.
