Sport Marketing
Learn the ins and outs of sport marketing with a certificate that adds resume value to just about any career pathway in athletics.
Designed for students and business professionals who are engaged in the dynamic field of marketing, the Sport Marketing Certificate prepares individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to successfully engage in the marketing of sport goods and services. This particular style of marketing is less about using a single strategy and more about using the content of sports to assist marketing efforts. Since sports can be watched on a variety of platforms, sports marketing can take many different forms. Teams sell advertising space inside their stadiums to marketers who want to purchase billboards and other print ads, while TV networks sell airtime during the events.
