Skills Bootcamp in Digital Marketing

TheLightBulb (TLB) and Get Set UK’s (GSUK) Digital Marketing Bootcamp will equip learners with practical and technical knowledge of digital marketing, to include how to define, design, build and implement digital marketing campaigns across a variety of online and social media platforms, the acquisition, engagement and retention of customers, coding basics, and website analytics, to progress them into sustainable employment with employers.

This Accelerated Digital Marketing Bootcamp has been designed to equip learners with the underpinning industry knowledge and transferable skills to enable them to become an economically viable and productive member of staff when they transition directly into the practical elements of a Digital Marketer or Content Creator apprenticeship. It will provide learners with a taste of working in the marketing sector whilst achieving industry recognised qualifications

We have worked closely with employers to create this highly interactive, practical and creative Skills Bootcamp which develops knowledge and skills needed within the sector. As part of this co-design employers are providing marketing and content production briefs to deliver real life industry campaign experience for the participants. This interactive programme uses a combination of tutor led workshops, 1:1 coaching and support sessions, e-learning content and self-study as well as promoting collaborative peer to peer engagement.

Throughout the programme appropriate IAG and employability support will be delivered to ensure the learner is ready for employment.

At the end of the programme the learner will have created a portfolio of work samples and a presentation to deliver to prospective employers at their guaranteed interview.  They will have prepared a learning impact statement to detail the knowledge and skills they have developed throughout the Skills Bootcamp and will have worked towards achieving industry recognised qualifications.

Eligibility:

  • Aged 19 or over
  • Must have the right to work in the UK
