What to expect during Anicca’s 16-day Skills Bootcamp

CRO & User Experience  

Anicca’s bootcamp is designed to deliver over 100 hours of guided learning hours (GLHs) over 16 days, including live online lessons, webinars, practical workshops, and access to Anicca’s extensive digital marketing resources. This includes:

  • Half-day induction  at the start of the course.

  • 10 core lessons covering the DMI modules – the lessons are taught and streamed live online. These interactive classes run from 9:30-4:30 with breaks and must be watched live on the day of the broadcast.
    Note: Two of the modules are too long to run in one day – so we have split the course with the final 3 hours of the session being taught on a morning of the same week (10:00am – 1:00pm).

  • 1-hour  live webinars every Friday  (9:00-10:00am)

  • We also run up to 8 half-day  practical workshops  (2-3 hours), taught live in the morning or afternoon. These practical workshops are on subjects like Google Analytics (GA4), use of Canva, ChatGPT, writing a press release, writing for SEO, and setting up paid ads etc.

  • In total, you have to attend 100 GLHs with around 20 hours of optional webinars and workshops. Of these, at least 80% have to be watched live on the day of broadcast, however, if you are sick or on leave, you can watch the video on catchup, as long as you inform us in advance.

Additional resources:

  • The lessons are taught by Anicca’s technical team, i.e. practising agency professionals, with a wealth of industry experience. They can share this experience, show you live examples and demonstrate the tools and techniques we use when managing our clients’ campaigns.

  • The video recordings can also be watched later, for example, to help you revise for your exams, or if you are sick or on holiday.

  • Learners can also access our learning portal with over 300 PowerPoint slides, student handbooks, videos and around 80 practical activities.

  • Ongoing communication and support is via our WhatsApp group, enabling communications with other learners and the trainers.

Help for job-seekers  

  • If you are a job-seeker, you are  GUARANTEED AN INTERVIEW  for a job or apprenticeship, as part of this programme. This is particularly useful for learners that are unemployed, recent graduates, or working part-time and want to switch careers.

  • Our Employer Liaison Officers (ELO’s) will help individual learners to get ready to apply for jobs with CV and interview preparation, and they will proactively look for jobs for you.

  • This includes optional and practical “recruitment-ready workshops”  designed to help you develop your CV, and interview techniques.

  • We periodically organise workshops from local Universities and colleges on education and apprenticeship opportunities.

Help for self-employed and employed learners

We also provide  action planning workshops  to help you grow your business, expand your current role, find a new position, or get a new job, with your current employer.

At the end of the course – DMI exams and certification 

You can attend our 1-day of guided exam revision, once you have completed the 10 days of core lessons, and the extra workshops. 

You will then need to provide evidence of “positive outcomes”, ie. a job interview or your Action plan.  Then you will get:

  • An Anicca’s certificate of attendance
  • 6 months membership to the DMI and access to their free resources, plus a free exam voucher to take your Level 5 DMI qualification. This is an independently verified multiple-choice exam that you take online.
  • Guidance on how to take additional exams like the Google Analytics or Google Ads certifications.

Further details on grants, funding and payments

The funding is from the Department of Education (DfE); as part of the  Lifetime Skills Guarantee and Plan for Jobs.

  • Recent graduates
  • Working part-time or on zero-hours contracts
  • Recently lost employment or income
  • Want to return to work following redundancy, health issues, childcare etc.

  • Information for Learners who are currently employed and supported by their employer 
    Employees that wish to improve their career and prospects within their current company, will need to get permission from their manager to participate in the course. This is because their employer must pay a contribution towards the cost of the training and will be required to sign a contract agreeing to the terms of the grant (see below). 
  • Information for employers, who have staff they want to train 
    Employers will receive up to a 90% grant towards the cost of the course and the DMI exam. Their contribution depends on your location and number of employees:

  • They will need to sign a contract agreeing to the terms of the grant and your contribution (we will invoice you)

    • 3-day per week to watch the main lesson live 9:30am – 4:30pm, with an hour for lunch. Note: 2 modules are too long to complete in one day, so they are split with an additional 3-hour session on the Friday morning. 
    • 1-hour each week to watch the live webinars every Friday mornings (9:00-10:00am).
    • Learners may also request extra time to complete supplementary study or apply their learnings to their job. 
  • On successful completion of the course, employers must agree to consider or reward the learner with “career progression”, such as a promotion or pay rise. 
  • Employers are also encouraged to join one of our ELO’s on a call to help them complete an Organisation Skills Analysis form and/or Business Plan. In some regions this is a compulsory element of receiving the grant.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility and screening

The Skills Bootcamp is suitable for learners over 19 who are prepared to work hard. However, a Level 5 qualification is like trying to do an A-level in 6 weeks, requiring you to invest around 20 hours per week in your studies. The modules must be watched live on the day of broadcast, so you will need to organise your schedule to accommodate this.

In addition, places are limited, so we need to ensure that all applicants are eligible and have the necessary time and commitment to complete the programme. So, everyone will be asked to carry out a simple online diagnostic test, to benchmark their current understanding of digital marketing.

You will then be interviewed by one of our friendly team, who will establish if the course is right for you and if you are likely to complete the course. We also need to determine if you will progress your career by providing evidence of a new job, promotion, or pay rise as a result of applying your learning during the boot camp to your business.

Eligibility questions

Learners have to say yes to all the criteria below:

  • Aged 19–65  (Self-employed can be over 65)

  • Resident in the UK for at least the last 3 years  and able to provide us evidence of your Right to Work  (UK passport, Visa or other ID). We will need to see your documentation at the screening interview.

  • Currently  living or working in Greater Lincolnshire or Rutland,  if you live in any of these counties (Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Norfolk, Suffolk or Nottinghamshire), you can apply using a different form. You can find links to the relevant forms at the bottom of this page or by visiting  https://anicca.co.uk/training-qualifications/ 
    We do not currently have any free or grant-funded places in other regions but do offer paid places outside of these areas.

  • You must be currently looking for a job or will apply the learnings from the course to your career or business – this means that you must be  looking for a job in digital marketing, or you must be  self-employed, or  supported by your current employer  (who will pay a contribution – see above).

  • Unfortunately, you will not be eligible if you are unable to work as soon as the course finishes (e.g. you are still in full-time education, or you can’t work due to ill health or caring responsibilities). However, you may be eligible in the future.

  • You must be available to watch lessons live on the day of broadcast on every Monday, Tuesday & Thursday (for the FAST-TRACK course). There are also 3 lessons that are split and require you to join from 10-1pm on 3 Friday mornings. In addition, you will need to attend the weekly webinar (9-10am each Friday).

    This means you will need to commit to watch between 20 hours per week by watching the lessons live on the day of broadcast. You will be required to record your attendance on an online timesheet.

  • You  can’t have enrolled on another Skills Bootcamp  course in the previous 12 months before the start of the course

  • You have to take a short online diagnostic test  to benchmark your current understanding of digital marketing. Your score should be more than 20%, otherwise you may struggle with the content. If you are new to digital marketing, we recommend that you watch  this webinar, which introduces the basic concepts of digital marketing.

  • You must attend a 30-minute screening interview  and understand that if you miss your appointment or rearrange on more than 2 occasions, you will lose your place

  • Whilst completing the application form, you must be prepared to  provide personal information  to Anicca Digital Ltd, which we will keep securely and in compliance with GDPR. Your National Insurance and Passport details can be supplied later in the process, e.g. during screening.

  • If you are enrolled on the course, you must agree for your  personal information to be shared with the funding partner (Greater Lincolnshire LEP) and the DFE.

  • You must provide evidence (for the DfE) of career progression and positive outcomes  resulting from attending the course. This could include proof of an interview or securing a job, or an Action Plan explaining how you will (or have) applied your learning to your own or your employer’s business.

If you pass all these eligibility criteria then please complete this  application form, where you will be asked to confirm these questions and provide details about yourself, your career so far and your aspirations for the future.

How to Apply

Our next course, for learners based in Greater Lincolnshire & Rutland, will start this Summer so you can apply now using our online application form.

Places are limited, so we need to ensure that you are eligible and have the time and commitment to complete the programme.  

Apply for the bootcamp in other counties

Skills Bootcamps are based on location, and we will soon be recruiting for the next bootcamp, for learners that live or work in the following areas: 

What happens next?

1) Screening interview 
Once we have received your completed application form, we will check your eligibility and then we will invite you to book an interview with us to make sure you understand what is involved and that you will either be looking for a job at the end of the course, or able to apply your learning to your own or your employer’s business.

2) Diagnostic Test
Once the interview has taken place, you will receive an email with details of how to complete the DMI diagnostic test. You have 2 days to complete the test and provide us with a screenshot of your results. Note: most people get between 30-50% in the test. If you score below 20%, you may struggle with learning the content.

3) Contracts and commitment
All learners are required to sign a contract committing to completing the course and agreeing to all the terms and conditions. This also means that you will need to keep us informed if you can’t attend live on a specific day, and you must also record your attendance, using an online timesheet.

4) Induction and overview session
We will then offer you the opportunity to attend the morning induction/overview session. All applicants must attend this online webinar.  This is the day before the first lesson.

5) Action Plans
If you are supported by your employer (or if you are self-employed), we will also require you to complete an Action Plan to demonstrate how you will apply your learning to your business or organisation.
Depending on the region, this may be before or after the course starts, and we can help you with this during a 1-2-1 meeting with one of our Employer Liaison Officers.

6) Cooling-off period
It is vital that everyone that starts the course completes it, otherwise someone else will miss out. Therefore, we allow a few days cooling-off period, after the Induction. We expect a few applicants to drop out, usually because they realise the level of commitment involved in watching the lessons live every week and the amount of work required to study for a Level 5 qualification.

If you do need to withdraw from the course, due to ill health, or a change in personal or employment circumstances; then please let us know immediately, because we may be able to arrange a referral to a future bootcamp.

If you do not attend the lessons or let us know what is happening, you may lose your place.

7) Employers
If you are employed, then one of our team will speak to your employer and ask them to sign their own contract. We will issue an invoice for their contribution towards the fees. 

Information required by the DfE

The course is monitored by DfE, and Ofsted, so there are a lot of questions to determine if you are eligible for the funding and to benchmark the impact of the training on employability. 

  • The  application form  requests a lot of information about your personal and employment status, and is collected on behalf of the DfE. 

  • All the information you supply is confidential, and you will be required to agree to the GDPR statements, on how the DfE will use your data.

  • The DfE also require you to take the DMI multi-choice diagnostic test at the beginning and end of the course, so we can document your progress during the course.

  • The 30-minute screening interview is also designed to check your suitability for the course and what your career plans are at the end.  If we do not think you can complete the course or are unlikely to be able to provide the “evidence of positive outcomes”, required by the DFE; then we will direct you to other options and resources, which may be more suitable.

Enrolment

Once you have passed your screening interview and signed your contract, we will allocate places on a ‘first come, first served’ basis.

Once you are enrolled, you will be contacted by our learner support team, who will provide you with a learning pack and details of induction sessions and the learning timetable.
