Course overview
This one day course will cover the essentials for anyone looking to master this user-friendly tag management solution.
Led by one of our Analytics experts, we’ll show you how you can take control of your marketing analytics and quickly deploy tags on your site. We’ll help you dissect each part of the GTM tool, including the more advanced features and functionality.
