    Having a place to meet apprentices and supported inside a structure like this has made interns a possibility for my small business. I just could manage to put it all together before. But with this process, I was able to find great talent and then have great success together!

    I love Acadium! I've had great success with very bright, assertive apprentices who have helped me achieve some amazing goals for myself and my clients. I have had 4 apprentices successfully complete, and the 5th finishes in 2 weeks. I also keep 2-3 apprentices at a time. My freelancers are exclusively hired through Acadium now.

    Using Acadium has been such a catalyst for growth in my business. It's enabled me to work with really talented and driven individuals who are hungry to learn and keen to have a real business to try out their new skills on. It's also enabled me to 'test run' potential team members before making a commitment to bring them into the business on a more permanent basis.

    I had an amazing experience. The first apprentice I ended up working with was simply phenomenal. He was proactive, provided immediate tangible action items to change, was an active member of our team, and contributed greatly to expanding our brand footprint via social media and in other digital marketing strategies. Highly recommend.

    Acadium provides qualified digital marketing interns! I have had the pleasure to work with an intern via the Acadium platform and can highly recommend the experience. My intern was very skilled and eager to learn more, and she supported me with social media content creation, proofreading and editing, background research and newsletter marketing.

    I'm just starting to work with an apprentice through Acadium. I'm so excited about the student I'm working with and truly appreciate the support and guidance of the Acadium staff. They have tools in place and suggestions that are essential in helping set both student and mentor/business up for success.

Still have questions?

    The apprentice candidates come from all over the world, but we keep the locations consistent with the mentors on the platform. 80% of our mentors are in North America, so we keep 80% of the candidates from North America as well.

  • What skill level can I expect from an apprentice?

    All of our apprentices are at Acadium looking to learn new skills and majority have beginner level information. Most students will have taken one or two basic marketing courses through various online learning platforms.

  • Are the apprentices vetted?

    Yes. Every apprentice is vetted through a profile application and vetting call.

  • What's involved in getting the right match?

    We'll match you with a vetted marketing apprentice that fits the marketing channels you need help with, your personality types, your business, and your location.

  • What's involved in mentoring an apprentice?

    Mentoring an apprentice takes 1-2 hours a week where you spend time with them providing guidance, answering questions, giving them tips and tricks, or even letting them watch you work on a screen share. A lot of the things you would do with a regular employee, but with a little more time and attention.

  • Can I hire my apprentice?

    Yes. After your apprenticeship, you can hire your apprentice as a full-time employee or freelancer. All you have to do is contact us and we'll set everything up for you.

  • Can I cancel an apprenticeship if it doesn't work out?

    Yes. Just email our customer support team and we’ll sort out your cancellation. Once your apprenticeship is cancelled, that position opens up again and you can refill it immediately with a new apprentice. You have 3 open positions as part of your membership.
