DrivingSales University Launches Auto Industry’s First Digital Marketing Training Certification for Dealers

Advanced platform offers certification curriculum for individual dealership professionals, including Online Marketing Certified Professional (OMCP)

 

Salt Lake City, Utah –October 14, 2013DrivingSales today announced a major upgrade to DrivingSales University (DSU), the industry leader in online training and performance coaching.  The new DSU platform further revolutionizes industry training by being the first to offer digital marketing training certification courses for dealership professionals, including a path to Online Marketing Certified Professional (OMCP) certification.  In addition, it makes hundreds of new online training modules available to dealership professionals who are seeking ongoing education.

 

 “Digital media increasingly dominates the way consumers get their information, and the channels where they communicate are rapidly evolving.  Keeping teams trained ahead of this consumer curve, and operating with consistent profit-building protocols, is becoming ever more challenging for dealers,” said DrivingSales founder and CEO Jared Hamilton.  “Not only does the new DrivingSales University platform provide the curriculum to keep dealership teams on top of what is current - and optimal flexibility to access training - it also offers true assurance for dealerships. Dealers who train and/or hire a DSU-certified employee will know that they have a person solidly trained on the latest selling strategies from web analytics to social marketing – and one who is able to constantly update his/her digital practices.”

 

The new training modules offered by the platform include two DSU-validated certification options: DrivingSales University Digital Marketing Certification and OMCP certification, considered a gold standard across multiple industries. Dealership professionals who receive certification through DSU should gain a distinct advantage in the marketplace, as will the dealerships that employ them. 

 

In addition, the new curriculum makes DSU unique in the industry because it offers the advantage of best practices that are proven across multiple industry verticals, including social media marketing, pay-per-click advertising, search engine optimization, mobile advertising, local search advertising, web analytics, and landing page conversion optimization.
