Develop your company with a digital marketing apprentice!
We are now delivering Digital Marketing Apprenticeships across Carmarthenshire and Western Bay: Bridgend, Neath Port Talbot, and Swansea.
The digital world is moving fast and digital marketing is already a ‘must’ in businesses of all sizes in order to grow, and not be left behind. Social media is quickly becoming a marketer's favourite tool due to its effectiveness and cost efficiency. We have level 3 apprenticeships which splits into two strands: Digital Marketing, and Social Media for Business. Get the foundations of digital marketing on one of these routes. Although they both overlap, the units specialise with each strand.
Join on a level 3 programme and choose a pathway - Social Media, or Digital Marketing. This course will give you a generic overview of the sector and will build your skills so that you are ready to move onto level 4 if you want. Even better, if you do a level 3 with us, we can recognise this and we can put it towards your level 4 qualification! Winner!

Want a mix of marketing and business administration? Head over to our Business Administration page. Looking for ECDL or more focussed on software? Check out our IT Application Specialist apprenticeships. Is this totally the wrong page? You actually wanted technical training? We've got you covered with an IT, Software, Web, & Telecoms Professional apprenticeship.
At Swansea ITeC we tailor each apprenticeship to each individual. This ensures that the units are relevant to the apprentice, and gives them the skills to develop the business. Learning the theory at the centre, apprentices will then be assessed using these skills within the workplace doing their day to day job. We understand that not all businesses have the same objectives and therefore customisation is vital!
