D2C & eCommerce Career Accelerator

3 Months Hybrid Industry Co-Branded Certification In academic collaboration with Dal Ai

The D2C & eCommerce Career Accelerator Program is a 3-month industry-focused certification designed for students, entrepreneurs, founders, and working professionals who aspire to build successful digital brands and careers in eCommerce.

What You Walk Away With

Not just a certificate. A case for yourself.

  • A launched brand — positioning, identity, storefront, and live campaigns
  • A performance dossier — campaigns you ran, spend you managed, numbers you moved
  • A growth model — your own unit economics sheet, built and defended
  • A portfolio that answers the only interview question that matters: show me what you've done
  • A network of mentors, founders, and peers who are building alongside you

The 90-Day Build

Month 01 — Build

Positioning, brand identity, category and competitor teardown, product-market fit, pricing architecture. You leave with a brand that has a reason to exist.

Month 02 — Launch

Storefront and marketplace setup, listing and catalogue craft, content that sells, paid acquisition across Meta and Google, creative testing, first-rupee revenue. You leave with a brand that is live.

Month 03 — Scale

Unit economics and CAC-to-LTV, retention and repeat, analytics and attribution, marketplace growth levers, D2C ops and fulfilment, investor and employer storytelling. You leave with a brand that can grow — and the vocabulary to be hired for it.
