Creative Data Academy
Institute of Data & Marketing
Every year, The Creative Data Academy provided the perfect platform for students aspiring to enter into a career in data to truly understand the avenues they can explore.
Through the range of sessions provided and exposure to industry experts, students receive a unique and valuable insight into the industry as well as entering into a network that will support and advise them through graduation and into their careers.
A handful of students have since been offered placement and graduate positions by the companies involved, proving of the success of the academy in finding and developing talent fit for the marketing industry.
“The Creative Data Academy was one of the most thought provoking and enjoyable things I have done outside of my degree. I would recommend anyone to apply, you will love it.”
