It's a sign of the times that many colleges and universities now offer actual degrees in social media. The University of Florida, for instance, has designed an online Master's in Social Media that teaches students cutting-edge engagement and messaging tactics that appeal to screen scrolling-obsessed modern consumers. The price of said degree? Oh, just $30,999 and at least 16 months of your precious, fleeting time on Earth.

The Silicon Valley Social Media Marketing Certification Course doesn't cost as much as a new car, nor must you dedicate a year-plus of your life to it. But just like its UF Gator counterpart, it will give you the skills and education you need to pursue a lucrative career as a top-performing social media professional. 

Across 12 modules, the course will teach you how to find, reach, and engage an online audience — and, in turn, sell more products — via campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest, and more.

You'll participate in dynamic videos, quizzes, and other learning resources that'll help make you an expert in market psychology, all under the attentive eye of highly certified instructors. Once you complete every lesson, you'll earn yourself a certification from the Silicon Valley Digital Marketing Institute.

Lifetime access to this valuable training would normally set you back almost $4,000, but for a limited time, you'll find it on sale in the Mashable Shop for only $19.99 — a savings of 99%.
