Stop. Breathe for a moment. We know that all the schools are fantastic, that in the photos all the students are gorgeous and that the teachers are the best prepared. So there’s no way to make up your mind, right?

Well, we have got enough and enough is enough. We have decided to compile what are, in our humble opinion, the best Spanish schools to study digital marketing.

What a few years ago could be a complete unknown for many, today is the cornerstone of thousands of businesses. Marketing as such is less and less heard and, as in so many other things, it has already been conquered by digital.

When your strategy is digital and your values to measure are KPIs, you need great professionals to lead your product to success.

A professional profile focused on digital marketing has gone from being something that added value to being totally basic and non-negotiable.

In this sense, training is the first step towards a professional career that, whether or not it is focused strictly on digital, is going to need your best marketing skills.

Before telling you which are the best digital marketing schools in Spain at the moment, we believe that you might want to consider some aspects to take into account when choosing a school and study.

• Course, Degree, Master: There are as many study options as work situations. Before looking for a place, decide where you are in your career and which course of study suits your needs best.

• Syllabus: If you already know, without a doubt, what you want to study and what you want to train in, don’t forget to check the contents of the course you are going to take. Make sure that the subjects and the approach are the right ones and that they are aimed exactly at a profile like yours.

• Teachers: Teachers are the link between knowledge and you. Research them and make sure that they are up to the task of studying, to your demands and to what they charge you.
• Structure: In addition to a teaching staff that is up to the task, you need the whole organisation chart to be well defined and for both the classes and the management to be agile. Also, keep in mind that we are talking about digital studies, the materials must be as modern and up-to-date as they promise to be.
• Job placement: You might already be a professional in the sector and just want to expand your knowledge, but if your plan is to take the first step into the world of work, keep an eye on the job market. You should study their job placement plan; if there is any agreement with companies or any entity that can offer an internship that will lead to a job.

With that been said, clearing up your initial doubts and your ideas, here are the best schools and a small summary that may help you choose. Let the reading begin.
