Google Analytics 4 & Digital Marketing Fundamentals

Built for marketing teams and small business owners, this course makes Google Analytics 4 and digital marketing measurement approachable and actionable. You will learn why GA4 shifted from sessions to an event-based model, how to set up a property correctly, and how to work with events, key events, and conversions. The course then covers campaign tracking with UTM parameters, reading acquisition and engagement reports, and building a consistent tagging strategy, all with privacy-aware measurement in mind. Final lessons turn data into decisions: building executive dashboards in Looker Studio and running a weekly optimization loop that connects insight to action and business impact.
