We've turned outdated and uninspired apprenticeship delivery on its head

A Digital Marketing Apprentice should be an asset, not a drain on your time or resources.

But for years many businesses have sadly experienced the opposite. Poor hiring practices, low-quality training and lack of expert input from assessors have left businesses struggling to get the most from their apprentices, leading to a poor return on investment.

It’s why we’ve turned this outdated and uninspired approach to apprenticeship delivery on its head.

We now have marketing analytics on which we can rely on to know what went well and what didn't - and adapt accordingly. It has been a cracking first 9 months.”

Revolutionary digital marketing training designed and delivered by industry-leading experts

How do we know our apprenticeship scheme will deliver results for you?

To start, our curriculum’s not ‘off-the-peg’. Leading marketing experts have designed our extensive programme based on the essential skills and processes your business needs to deliver competent marketing in a rapidly evolving digital world.

The result?

An apprenticeship that really works (and far exceeds all other programmes in England). Our marketing experts don’t just offer specialist training and personal coaching to your apprentice, we deliver wrap-around support for the apprentice and their manager.

It’s this holistic approach that makes our programme so successful (and why the 2022 and 2023 BCS Digital Marketing Apprentices of the year came through Working Knowledge!).

See what makes our apprenticeship one of a kind:

Recruitment includes facilitated assessment centre

Delivered by practising marketing consultants

Underpinned by Storybrand & Access to Business Made Simple University

Weekly expert webinars

Monthly 1:1 marketing coaching

Monthly ROI Sessions for managers

Typically, Working Knowledge apprentices are aged 23 and more than 40% are educated to degree level.

What business owners love about Working Knowledge digital marketing apprenticeships

We headhunt exceptional candidates

We headhunt your entry-level talent on a no-hire no-fee basis. We look for the highest flyers out there in the talent pool so you hire the right apprentice first time. (Heads up, Working Knowledge apprentices tend to be age 24 and many are degree educated.) Our comprehensive assessment process ensures you only ever meet the highest calibre of candidates at a facilitated half-day event designed to help you choose the candidate with the best cultural fit.

Our training is delivered by subject matter experts

You and your apprentice will be fully supported by our team of expert marketing coaches and trainers. They are all practicing marketing consultants who ensure their knowledge and experience is bang up to date. They will guide you and your apprentice throughout the 17-month programme, offering practical, real-world advice and supervision so you can put impactful strategies and tactics in play to set your business up for success.

We train apprentices in the StoryBrand framework

Working Knowledge is the only Apprenticeship Academy in the UK to embed the highly effective StoryBrand framework into the curriculum. We introduce this to apprentices at the start of the programme so they can hit the ground running with clear marketing messaging that’s proven to connect faster with prospects, drive revenue and attract loyal customers. You can learn more about why we align our training with StoryBrand here.

We even take the pain out of your application paperwork

We know just the thought of tackling confusing funding applications can be enough to turn many busy business owners off considering apprenticeships altogether – and when there’s so many advantages to be had to having an apprentice on your team, we certainly don’t want that getting in your way. We appoint a dedicated member of our team to pre-fill your paperwork and then guide you through every clause, so you just sign on the dotted line.
