Grossly Unqualified Interns I joined Acadium three months ago. I have had three separate interns during that time. The first had no idea what they were doing. The next two quit unexpectedly in the second week after I had done all the front-end onboarding work (I did it with each intern, probably 20hours of my time total). None of them were able to perform even basic social media marketing, even after several hours of one-on-one mentoring. In the end, Acadium has my money (no refund policy) and I spent too many hours with clearly unqualified interns and absolutely zero help with my business. I don't know where they find the interns, but clearly they are not very discerning. I will also say their sales team is high pressure, the kind where I'll talk to my manager price but you have to sign up today - I can't believe I fell for it. Could not recommend them less.

The perfect platform for those who need their first chance Acadium provided a platform through which I connected with the perfect mentor relative to my personality and desires for an internship. I have the vision of becoming a social media manager and Acadium connected me with a company in which I could take the skills and knowledge that I have acquired and use them in a practical context. Acadium provided me with the break I needed to get the ball rolling in my career.

Business Business. Would not recommmend. Interns were not of quality our company was searching for. Inquired about an amicable pro-rated refund which company was unwilling to entertain. They talk about refunds for "unique circumstances" and "internal refund policy".

I never knew my story writing gift can… I never knew my story writing gift can be deployed in marketing until I encountered Acadium platform and their mentors. I saw the business value of my artistic talent. I was matched with the right persons that can help deploy my skills appropriately. I am fired up to vigorously pursue a career in digital marketing, CRM and PR. The fact that I do not have a degree in any of these areas does not deter me. Acadium gave me this confidence.

I have completed an apprenticeship… I have completed an apprenticeship program with the Acadium successfully. The good thing about this program is that they are going to find you an experienced mentor to match with you in 3 days and you will have an interview with that mentor and then if everything goes well they teach you what ever you want to learn in any specific area and you can upgrade your skills and learn about the industry that you try to get into. And by the end you will receive a certificate of completion which is very good and you can add it to your resume.
