The Digital Marketing Academy, a joint programme accessible to all University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University students, has been nominated in two categories in the Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services (AGCAS) Awards for Excellence.
These awards encourage, reward and share good practice amongst Higher Education careers and employability practitioners, and their partner organisations, by promoting quality, innovative and collaborative projects and high professional standards across the full range of HE careers and employability work.
The work experience programme is nominated for the Supporting Student/Graduate Employability Award, and Building Effective Partnerships Award.
The Academy is an employer-led programme and, as such, has strong relationships with local
digital marketing agencies Impression, Hallam, Diversity, Nuom, Status Social and Adtrak. Students of both universities participate in a number of employer-led workshops and have the option to attend an insight day and complete a 3-week ‘digital challenge’ project in mixed groups under the supervision of a digital marketing professional.
This year, the winners will be announced via the AGCAS Awards for Excellence Showcase webinar series. Each webinar will include a short presentation from the service category nominees about their submission, followed by a Q&A and announcement of the winners.
The webinar series will take place between June 14-16 2020.
