The GANDT starter program was designed after realising that there was a need for both us and the market to grow more digital talent. It was built with the mindset of educating and training as many people about digital marketing as possible. The program is a traineeship, which means that GANDT offers a paid (digital) training program to people who have gained first experiences in marketing. Additionally, trainees are taught the GANDT way or working, which means integration into client teams and co-creating in a far broader sense than what marketing consulting is usually known for.

That is why we are thrilled to introduce our GANDT Starter Program—where we’ve taken the best elements of an internship (paid), training period, and apprenticeship and rolled them into one exciting package geared towards long-term employment.
