What Can I Do With a Digital Media Diploma?
Getting your diploma after completing one of our multimedia programs is just the first step in your career. The next step is to leverage the skills you’ve learned and the hands-on experience you’ve gained over the course of your education into landing a real-world position working with digital media.
Traditional broadcasting companies and public broadcasters in news, sports and entertainment are – and will most likely continue to be – huge employers of digital media professionals. You’ll almost certainly apply for jobs with them at some point in your career, and working with them allows you to potentially reach a national audience with your work.
At the same time, fully internet-based digital media companies are growing in clout and importance in both news and entertainment. While their audiences tend to be a little smaller, they do exciting work as high-volume, high-quality output is the key to success online.
