Quality:
It is the major factor that influences the charges for the digital marketing courses. Those institutes that offer courses at a high quality charges more than that of the institutes that offer courses at a low or medium quality. Course quality normally denotes the content quality. If a person chooses the high quality institutes for learning digital marketing courses, then he need to pay some higher fees, in order to acquire quality training. Also those high quality institutes will make the learners aware of the recent updates in the aspects of social media and search engines. They too provide high quality course materials to the learners.
Mentor:
The learner can acquire the professional skills of the mentor, if the institute is having a highly experienced and trusted mentor. He may provide a complete support, encouragement and guidance to all his active learners. A good mentor is far better than a teacher, since he can be able to teach updated skills to the learners. Hence it is essential that a digital marketing institute should have a good mentor. If an institute holds a good mentor with a perfect profile, then it can impose huge course charges. After a better analysis, we came to know that most of the renowned digital marketing institutes have a record of industry expertise mentors with them.

Knowledge:
The institutes should teach extra ordinary knowledge by making the syllabus to cover all the essential aspects needed for the digital marketing phenomenon. This means that knowledge equivalent to the knowledge of the industry experts must be taught to the learners effectively.

Job assurance:

Hence it is essential that a good institute must offer placement facilities to the learners. Also, the learners will be ready to pay a large amount of course fees to the institutes with guaranteed placements.
