The Startech DevOps and Online Marketing School successfully wrapped up at the end of the summer with participants feeling the positive impact the courses had on their professional development within their careers. Participants learned from cutting edge high-tech companies, like Outbrain, Cedato, Zooz and Brightcom for example. Some of the areas that the classes covered include content marketing, choosing a social media audience, and interviewing within these areas.
Syoma, a graduate of this past summer's Startech Online Marketing School had the following to say about the program:
"When hunger for knowledge and thirst for digital marketing meet the perfectly executed meal by Startech, it can only lead to great success. I am definitely more aware of the great power of online marketing then I was 3 months ago. Equipped with great newly acquired tools I am ready for my next challenge."
Omri is another inspiring Stratech Online Marketing school graduate who had the following to say about the impact the program had on his career:
"After 10 year working in marketing in San Francisco, I returned to Israel. It was not easy, and I spent a lot of time looking for something interesting and challenging that would boost my skills. The Startech course did exactly this for me, it was both very interesting and challenging and I have gained skills I did not have before the program. Right from the start of the program, my brain was working overtime. I'm looking forward to becoming an active part of this amazing industry."
In September, Startech's first Mobile School was launched in partnership with leading high tech companies such as Wix, Sears Israel, Gett, My Heritage, Chegg and Inneractive. Participants have had 4 sessions already and are raving about the fantastic instructors and high level learning they are receiving.
The last session which was held at Wix and led by a Wix Software Engineer was rated one of the best yet, one of the Mobile School participants, Eyad, had the following to say about why he signed up for the Mobile School:
"I wanted to update my professional qualifications and this is a new area for me to learn about within my field. It's been very useful because it's not just theoretical but is very hands-on as well- with self-learning that has further expanded my knowledge base. I have already recommended Startech to friends and I look forward to applying what I've learned to my work."
Finally we are gearing up for our next school, the Data School and are in the process of selecting the very deserving participants for this next school.
