Content Creation

Overview
This Content Creation course is a 20-hour, hands-on introduction to planning, designing, and publishing content across digital platforms. There is no prerequisite, so it is open to complete beginners. You will learn what content creation actually involves, how to identify your target audience, and how to pick the right platform and format for your message.
From there, the course moves into practical tools: designing social media posts in Canva, editing short videos such as Reels, TikToks, and Shorts in CapCut, and using captions, hashtags, trends, and storytelling hooks to grow an audience organically. The course ends with a final project where you create and present one complete piece of content from idea to publishing.
