The advertising Association of Ghana (AAG) and the Meltwater Entrepreneurial School of Technology (MEST), have entered into a partnership to provide internship and other career opportunities for young Ghanaian graduates with digital marketing and web developing skills. The partnership, which promises to give access to about 300 young graduates from the two specified fields, will cover a period of three (3) years.

According to the details of an MoU signed by the two organizations, graduates from MEST would be given internship and subsequent employment opportunities with member agencies of the Advertising association of Ghana. MEST, funded by the Mastercard Foundation, is a globally acknowledged technology institution that trains young unemployed graduates to acquire employable skills in technology.

Even before the MoU would be signed by MEST and AAG, over 30 graduates from MEST who are Digital Marketers and Web Developers have got the opportunity to work with 12 member organizations of the Advertising Association of Ghana, and the number keeps increasing each week. The Advertising Association of Ghana has over 300 member organizations (agencies).
