I never studied web design or online marketing and, the few IT courses I did at college were outdated and pretty bad overall. Let's say that I, with 2-3 years of web design experience (back then), could have easily taught the course and do a better job than the professors, who were just teaching theory (never had their own website, never did actual development work). Might have changed (and maybe some top universities have decent course), but I'd rather study only and DO the work, than waste time with these. I also have NO certification whatsoever, but a truckload of pretty big clients and 25 years almost under my belt

Joining a digital marketing institution can be useful if you want structured learning, mentorship, and certifications that build credibility. However, it’s not mandatory. Many professionals learn effectively through online courses, real-world projects, and self-study. It depends on your learning style and how much guidance or networking you want.

Joining a digital marketing institution can provide guidance, certification, and networking opportunities, which is helpful if you’re starting out. But self-learning, experimenting with real campaigns, and using online resources can also build strong skills without formal enrollment.
