The B2W Group has recently introduced a new pre-apprenticeship course to help those interested in IT and Digital Marketing take the first steps towards a rewarding career.
Our three-week programme, ‘Introduction to Digital Technologies’, is designed to teach learners the key skills and knowledge of IT, Digital Marketing, and employability. There is no cost to learners, and they may be eligible for reimbursement costs of £50 per week to cover travel and food and to support them in attending the training.
There are a range of topics covered during the course, and a duration of three-weeks allows us to work with our learners to ensure they are ready for the role they want to progress into. The course topics include:
- Key Elements of Digital Marketing
- Principles of Marketing
- Digital Presence, Awareness and Safety
- Digital Technology in the Workplace
- Introduction to Design and Development
- of Software
- Team Working
- Introduction to Installing Computer
- Software
- How to Set-up an IT Network
- Identify Suitable Opportunities
- Behaviours and Standards at Work
- Produce a CV
- Succeed at an Interview
Our current Manchester learners are now on their second week of training, and have expressed their interest in the course and how they are enjoying it so far.
We caught up with one of the aspiring digital marketers to get a feel for their first week of training –
“I’m learning lots of new things, both digital marketing, technology and also what to expect when I get my first job and to top it off, we get pizza on Fridays!”
Every Friday, we provide pizza and snacks for the learners, along with a range of fresh fruits every morning of the course.
We offer the pre-apprenticeship training programme in the Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire areas. If you would like to find out more about the programmes, you can visit the pre-apprenticeship training page on our website.
