Social Media Manager
Real portfolio pieces built during the course, not a certificate for its own sake. Each one is work you can show.
- Social performance reviewA fall in reach read properly before anything was bought or changed: what fell and what rose, by format, whether orders moved, what the data shows as against what it only suggests, and the first step.
- Creator brief and label fixThe fix for a creator post that was an unlabelled ad, and the brief for a paid video: what each piece needs, the rule behind it, who does it and by when, written so the creator can follow it without a call.
- Complaint response planThe response to a complaint that went public: the holding reply word for word, what is said where, who owns each action and when, the safety claim handled privately, and the cause fixed behind the scenes.
- Monthly social report and planA month's social report built on outcomes: orders and revenue by platform, wholesale enquiries reported separately, the week's decisions with their reasons, and next month's platforms and posting rhythm.

Description
Every CertClue course follows the same seven-part shape: fundamentals, the role translated out of job-posting language, a real working day, the job's recurring rhythms, a multi-day simulation, the portfolio you build along the way, and a handoff into your next move. Here is what that looks like for social media manager.
