From zero to your
first marketing role.
nppstart is built around a single idea: give 18–25 year olds everything they need to build a genuine career in digital marketing. Here's exactly how it works.
Start for freeFour steps. One complete path.
Every person who comes through nppstart follows this path — at whatever pace works for them.
Learn
Start with free training in the NPP Start Training Centre: 17 courses covering every core area of digital marketing. It's invite-only for now, so register your interest and we'll send your invite once you're approved.
The basics, done properly.
Most people trying to break into marketing feel overwhelmed before they start. Too many platforms, too much jargon, and no clear place to begin.
Our training is built for people at the very beginning. No assumption of prior knowledge. No gatekeeping. Just honest, practical content that actually gets you started.
Find your people. Find your thing.
Breaking into any industry is as much about who you know as what you know. The nppstart community is where you meet other people at the same stage — and where you start to discover which part of marketing genuinely excites you.
Passion is how you get into the Do agency. The community is where you find it.
Connect
Join a community of people at the same stage as you. Ask questions without embarrassment. Build the network that opens doors.
D
AgencyThe D Agency is where you do real work for real clients. Paid. Supervised. Structured around full agency experience.
Real work. Real pay. Real experience.
The D Agency isn't a simulation. Clients know they're working with a junior team — that transparency is built into the model and it's what makes it work.
Think of it like a trainee hairdresser. The work is real, every piece is overseen, and everyone understands the context. The result is a fair exchange that creates something genuine for everyone involved.
How do you get in? Passion is the entry requirement. The people who join D are the ones who've found their spark through the training and community. Skills come with the doing.
Your first role. Not a cold application.
nppstart actively places people into their first marketing role — with warm introductions to agency partners who already trust the process.
Our goal isn't just to get you a job. It's to get you the right job, in the right team, where you can keep growing.
Place
Warm introductions to agencies who know and trust the quality of people coming through NPP Start.
Not just skills.
A career.
By the time you complete the full path, you won't just understand digital marketing in theory. You'll have worked on real projects, used real tools, built a real portfolio — and have an introduction to your first role waiting.
Start here — it's freeThings people usually ask.
Do I need any experience to join?
None at all. The training is built for people at the very start. You don't need to know the difference between SEO and PPC — you just need to be curious and willing to learn.
Is the training really free?
Yes. The training lives in the NPP Start Training Centre and costs nothing. It's invite-only for now: register your interest and we'll send your invite once you're approved. No payment required.
How do I get into the Do Agency?
There's no test or selection process. Passion is the entry requirement. The people who join Do are the ones who engage with the training, participate in the community, and discover the area of marketing that genuinely excites them. If that's you, Do is for you.
How much does the Do Agency pay?
A place in Do is paid work. We believe real work deserves real pay — unpaid work disadvantages the people who need this most. Specific rates will be shared during the application process.
Do I need a degree?
No. Qualifications don't open the door here — curiosity and commitment do. We work with school leavers, graduates, career changers and everyone in between.
What age group is this for?
NPP Start is built specifically for 18–25 year olds who are trying to get into digital marketing. This is the age group the industry is leaving behind most severely, and it's where our focus sits.
