SEO Training Course

EDIT: GOOGLE has just retracted the accreditation of this course. The course will STILL GO AHEAD but is NOT associcated with Google.  Instead this course is in association with Verve Search and Reed Learning.

I have just been confirmed as the tutor for Reed Learning’s SEO Course this autumn! The SEO training course is run by Reed Learning and is part of their new Google Marketing Academy courses. The courses are accredited by Google and range from Google AdWords, Google Analytics and SEO courses. This is the first time Google has partnered with a training provider to hold courses like this, I’m particularly excited about the fact Google is investing in the education of Search Engine Optimisation and not only PPC and use of Google AdWords. The courses are designed for marketers, web developers and SMEs wishing to get their business noticed online.
