Unfortunately Google Digital Garage's Fundamentals of digital marketing course, which is part of this course, is being updated and it doesn't take new enrolments at the moment. The new updated version is expected to be released soon.

Laurea's degree students cannot choose the study unit. Similar content for degree students is offered as a part of study unit HL00BQ81 Digital Marketing and Sales.

The course is Bachelor's degree program level. Master's students may also take the course or join to familiarize themselves with the content, but the course cannot be included in a Master's degree.

If the course is not completed by the end date of the implementation, the student can enroll in the next implementation. Incomplete assignments cannot be transferred to the next implementation; all tasks must be redone.
