Courses cover topics such as spotting misinformation, effective communication, and understanding business contracts. The rise of influencer education comes as the industry grows, with classes attracting thousands of participants from around the world. However, there is ongoing debate about the necessity of formal education for influencers and the potential legal and financial risks involved in the field. The future of influencer education remains uncertain as the profession continues to evolve rapidly.
