BREAK INTO ADVERTISING
BREAK INTO ADVERTISING

IAPI are delighted to announce a mentoring partnership with The Open Doors Initiative to link up IAPI member employees and agencies with their participants, to help them towards employability.

Under the banner of "Break into Advertising" IAPI & Open Doors want to provide 20 people with 1 month of online training planned to launch in January 2021. The training will be provided over a four week period by participating IAPI members and Open Doors.

The benefits of what we are doing will be two-fold – it will open up the labour market to some of those who have been unable to access it; and in doing so it will help us to attract and retain our future workforces.

We now invite you to register your interest in this programme by signing up for our launch event on the 14th of October (9.30am).

We will be joined by Open Doors CEO Jeanne McDonagh who will explain how this joint programme will support marginalised groups in accessing training, work experience, mentoring and employment. We will provide clear and defined guidelines and explain the commitment required to execute this programme.

The ask of you as a participating agency is that you will provide one to one mentoring, advice and training assistance during the training month and the offer of a three-month paid internship upon the completion of the training.

The proposed timeline for this programme is as follows -

  • OCT 14th - Launch of 'Break into Advertising'
  • NOV 30th - Interviews will take place
  • DEC 11th - Applicants will be informed of their placements
  • JAN 2021 - Launch of online training programme

The Execution -

IAPI & Open Doors will provide a comprehensive month of online training 5 mornings a week for four weeks. Upon completion of training the relevant participant and IAPI Agency member will mutually decide to engage in a three-month paid internship.

This 3 month internship will complete the engagement by the IAPI member and the course participant in the "Break into Advertising' Programme.

"The Open Doors Initiative members helped over 2,300 people on pathways to work last year with 33 companies. Membership and support have since increased to 45 organisations (a mix of multinational, SME, education and semi-state), Government departments and 24 Supporting Partners including various NGOS to create pathways to employability.

We are delighted to be now working with IAPI's members as well to further our work."

Jeanne McDonagh (CEO Open Doors)
