Marketing apprenticeships have been created as the ideal pathway to train or cross-train those within your business looking to move into a marketing role, or develop those already in a marketing role.
“I am thoroughly enjoying this apprenticeship. I am learning something new every week, from the workshops, to completing the tasks to the online courses. Within the first couple of months, I was able to bring back new knowledge to my team members and explain to them what I had learned and how we can interpret it into our marketing.” - Erin, Marketing Executive at Fill the Gap Marketing
