Rationale:
The much talked about buzz word in the majority of the academic circles, and government programmes are the 4th Industrial Revolution. This revolution promises a future where we are digital, and lives are improved through better use of technology. This gives rise to a variety of new sectors and an ability also to expand existing sectors. For these sectors to thrive, there is a new breed of professionals that will need to render services and build products in the digital era. This qualification aims to be a contributor to the creation of such a professional. Digital Marketing scholars argue that organisations are realising the value and need for effective digital communications and Digital Marketing (Lamberton and Stephen, 2018; Lui and Burns, 2018; Ruchman, 2018). Coupled with this growing realisation is the ever-growing need globally for digital marketers. Isranie (2018), Lal (2018) and Paswan (2018) hold that this is an emerging field with a recognised scarcity of professionals. This qualification will afford learners with skills in Digital Marketing. Currently, there has been a drastic shift to effectively utilise Digital Marketing as a competitive advantage to ensure organisational messages reach various target markets (Bongea and Zamith, 2018; Hunsberger, 2017; McPherson, 2018). Albeit, the growing recognition by organisations to invest immense capital and human resources into the advances of Digital Marketing. According to digital marketer Goodwin (2018), a vast majority of organisations struggle with the implementation of effective marketing strategies utilising digital communication technologies. There is a dire need for Digital Marketing strategies in the form of digital content development, web marketing, email marketing, mobile marketing and, ultimately, the specialisation and professionalisation of this field (Fulgoni, 2018; Conwel, 2018; Zarzosa, 2018).

The qualification will provide learners with knowledge and skills to function as digital marketers in a global age of modern marketing where there is constant and increasing need to adapt to the ever-changing opportunities that come with technology and the benefits this might reap for the organisation (Martin, 2018; Demers, 2018; Magnuson, 2018). Furthermore, this qualification is aimed at providing learners with crucial insight into the current discourse and debate as well as knowledge that underlines Digital Marketing such as, Digital Marketing strategies, Marketing Communication, Branding, Web Development and Analytics, and Ethics in the Digital Era.

As stipulated by Economist, Jammine (2018) South Africa is facing an ever-growing and increasingly high unemployment rate brought about by several factors which result in various consequences for both the South African government and civil society. The high unemployment rate, coupled with what scholars Beukes, Fransman, Murozvi, and Yu (2017) state as a gap in specialists' educational qualifications, showcases the dire need to offer this specialised qualification. The typical learners that this qualification hopes to attract Grade12 learners who achieved the NSC with admission to Bachelors' studies. Members of an organisation that would like to expand on their Digital Marketing knowledge and obtain a qualification in this field. Also, current marketers that would like to become knowledgeable about the digital nature of marketing would benefit from this qualification.

This qualification builds on the milestone and foundation that was created by the Higher Certificate in Digital Marketing which is recently accredited.

The Bachelor of Commerce in Digital Marketing qualification responds directly to the rapidly evolving needs of the marketing field in the digital world. Organisations demand a new set of marketing skills as they move from traditional to digital marketing strategies. Qualifying learners can find employment as:

Marketing Managers.

Search Marketing Strategists.

Green Marketers.

Market Research Analysts and Marketing Specialists.

Advertising and Promotions Managers.

Public Relations Specialists.

A host of new jobs that are emerging as a result of the changes taking place.

INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY

This qualification was compared with the international qualifications listed below.

Country: United States of America (USA).
Institution: University of Wisconsin-Stout.
Name of Qualification: Digital Marketing Technology, Bachelor of Science.

Purpose of Qualification:
The Bachelor of Science in Digital Marketing Technology is the first of its kind in this emerging field. The digitisation of communications has created a fundamental switch that places technology at the heart of the process of marketing communications. New careers are emerging, and few people possess the required educational background to thrive in this new field. Digital marketing technology falls broadly into the field of "Informatics," which is the study of how users and systems interact to accomplish goals. The qualification takes a multidisciplinary approach featuring content, design, development, and distribution.

The heart of the curriculum is in areas of web technology and enterprise technology systems. Courses in software and web applications, marketing, design, production, and analytics provide a cross-disciplinary approach to prepare learners for a broad range of careers where the job titles are just emerging and will always be changing and growing shortly. Businesses realise the importance of hiring people who understand both process and technology, which results in a hot job market where talent is limited, jobs are abundant, and salaries are high. This qualification prepares learners for this job market and to grow as it changes.
