Learn more about the association's new apprenticeship program

Like several other industries, media and marketing companies are experiencing difficulties recruiting and retaining talent. To help combat this, the Interactive Advertising Bureau is introducing a digital media apprenticeship program.

"Right now, there is a lot of competition when it comes to people in the industry," said Jessalin Lam, IAB vice president of member development and diversity. "This is a way of really opening up to a new talent pool that hasn't really been tapped into yet."
