Discover Digital is the first of its kind and aims to support young people find their way into the data and marketing industry. The course will be open to young people from Barnardo’s Make Trax programme, which is funded by the DM Trust, European Social Fund and the National Lottery, through the Big Lottery Fund. The programme enables the young people to work with a dedicated progression coach towards getting them back into employment, education or training

Taking place in Brighton from 29th October – 2nd November, Discover Digital will help its students understand the job roles and opportunities in the digital marketing sector through a range of talks from industry experts, including speakers from Pure 360, SiteVisibility and Mr President. They’ll also visit an agency to understand the ins and outs of agency-life and will be presented with a brief, provided by TrustedHousesitters, to work on across the week which will challenge them to think creatively to grow the business.

Kay Tarry, ETS Head of Operations South at Barnardo’s commented, “We are really excited to be working with DMA Talent on the Discover Digital course in Brighton. The Digital Landscape is constantly evolving and we are seeing more and more young people with a desire to pursue a career in the Digital Industries. We are passionate about young people reaching their potential and this course will inspire them and give them the knowledge and confidence to consider digital marketing as a career option”

“We are already very grateful to National Lottery players and the European Social Fund for making the Make Trax programme possible, and we’re thrilled to have additional support from DMA Talent, allowing us to offer another great opportunity to local young people.
