From Uncertainty to Clarity: How Nazila Found His Path in Digital Marketing with eduCLaaS
SHARE THIS:
Like many high school graduates, Nazila Rifan wasn’t entirely sure what his future would look like. He had a love for English, a growing curiosity about technology, and an unstoppable drive to better himself. But what he didn’t have—at least not yet—was a clear path.
Add to that the financial strain his family faced during the COVID-19 pandemic, and his hopes for a conventional college experience began to feel out of reach.
“One of my biggest concerns was spending a lot of time and money only to struggle finding a job afterward,” Nazila recalls. “A lot of the material felt more theoretical than practical.”
It’s a sentiment shared by many young people today. In an ever-evolving job market, the traditional academic route can feel slow, outdated, and disconnected from real-world demands. For Nazila, that fear became the spark to search for something different—something that could offer practical skills, hands-on experience, and a way to earn while learning.
Struggling to Find Direction
Nazila briefly considered going the conventional route, but it didn’t take long to realize that he needed something different—something hands-on, structured, and with a clear link to employability. The idea of sitting through long lectures for four years without knowing if it would lead to a job felt uninspiring.
At one point, he thought about jumping straight into the workforce, but he lacked the skills and experience employers were looking for. He needed a learning experience that could bridge the gap between being a student and being a professional.
That’s when he discovered eduCLaaS.
A New Kind of Learning Experience
What caught Nazila’s attention about eduCLaaS was its promise of learning by doing. Instead of focusing solely on theory, the program combines job-relevant skills training, real project work, and certifications from global tech platforms like HubSpot, Google, and Meta. For someone like Nazila—who was eager to explore the world of digital marketing but didn’t know where to start—this felt like the perfect fit.
The journey started with the Digital Marketing Bootcamp, where Nazila got to experience his first taste of working on real campaigns. He learned how to conduct market research, build customer personas, design landing pages, and manage ad campaigns across various platforms. He even built his own website—something he never imagined doing before.
“I had zero background in website creation, but after the bootcamp, I could actually build one myself. That felt amazing.”
Alongside the technical skills, Nazila also gained critical soft skills: teamwork, time management, communication, and adaptability. The program’s blended learning model helped him balance online learning with mentorship and group collaboration, simulating what it’s like to work in a real company environment.
Landing His First Job
After completing his bootcamp and working on his personal brand portfolio, Nazila began applying for entry-level positions in digital marketing. It didn’t take long for employers to notice the difference.
He secured a role as a Marketing Associate—a job that allowed him to immediately apply the skills he’d gained, from email marketing to social media content planning. What set him apart was not just his resume, but his readiness to contribute from day one.
“The tools I learned, like HubSpot and Meta Business Suite, are the same ones I use at work. I didn’t have to start from scratch.”
Nazila now plays an active role in managing digital campaigns, analyzing results, and supporting lead generation for his team. Each task he takes on brings him one step closer to his career goals: becoming a Social Media Manager and, one day, leading his own digital marketing team.
