Is this course for you?

People now discover products, compare companies and ask questions inside Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and LinkedIn. This course shows you how to plan useful content, run paid campaigns and measure the enquiries or sales that follow.

For business owners

You may have boosted posts and seen little come back. In this course you learn how to choose the right objective, build an audience, set up Meta Pixel and Conversions API signals, and judge results by leads or sales rather than likes.

For beginners

No prior ads experience needed. We start inside Meta Ads Manager and build up: audiences, creative, budgets, and the reports that tell you what worked. Everything practised in a live account.

For marketers

Add TikTok search, LinkedIn B2B campaigns and AI-assisted creative workflows to your Meta skill set. You leave with a content plan, a paid campaign structure and work you can explain to a manager or client.

Learn how to advertise on Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok, LinkedIn and Snapchat.

Questions people ask before joining

Still have questions?

Ask about timings, pricing, or whether this course fits your goal.

How long is the social media marketing course and when does it run?

The course runs within one week and includes 10 hours of live teaching. Weekend, weekday and private schedules are arranged around the learner or team. You can attend in person in Dubai or join live online. Ask us for the next available dates.

How much does the social media marketing course cost?

The course starts from AED 3,000 per person. It is paid training, and the exact fee depends on the batch format and whether it is an individual or corporate booking. Any advertising budget used on a live campaign is separate from the course fee.

Does the course cover paid ads or only organic content?

Both, and the paid side is where most of the practical work sits. You cover organic strategy and content planning, then campaign setup, audience targeting, creative and measurement across Meta, TikTok, Snapchat and LinkedIn, on live ad accounts rather than slides.

Do I need my own business or social account to join?

No. If you have one we will work on it, which makes the week considerably more useful. If not, you work on a practice account, and everything transfers.

What current social media skills does the course cover?

The syllabus covers short-form video, content planning, Meta Advantage+ automation, audience signals, Meta Pixel and Conversions API tracking, TikTok search and creative research, LinkedIn B2B campaigns, AI-assisted creative workflows and reporting. You also learn when manual control is still needed.

Is there an advanced social media marketing track?

Yes. Experienced marketers can focus on campaign structure, first-party audiences, server-side conversion signals, creative testing, attribution, lead quality and scaling. Tell us what you already manage when you enquire, so the practical exercises start at the right level.

Do I receive a certificate?

An optional ATHE certificate can be arranged on request for an additional fee. It is not included automatically. Ask about the certificate when you enquire so the team can confirm the current process and cost.

Will this help me get a social media job in Dubai?

It gives you practical work you can discuss in an interview. Employers usually want evidence that you can plan content, build a campaign, read the results and explain what you changed. No course can promise a job, but a real campaign example is stronger than memorised platform terms.
