AI Growth Scholarship Programme
In Partnership with The Marketing Club
At AI Growth Academy, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to build practical AI skills, regardless of where they are in their career or current circumstances.
That’s why, together with The Marketing Club, we’re offering two fully funded places in our October AI Marketing Accelerator.
This scholarship is designed for marketers with the drive to learn, experiment and grow, but who may not currently have access to professional development funding.
Whether you’re early in your career, returning to work, between roles, working for a not-for-profit, building your own business or facing financial barriers, we’d love to hear your story.
What's included
Successful applicants will receive:
One fully funded place in the October AI Marketing Accelerator
Six live online workshops
Session recordings and practical resources
Access to the AI Growth Academy community
