“The AAM program gave me insight into what my life would look like after graduation. Our studying at AdStudio truly reflects real-life communications and working conditions with clients, briefs, and presentations. I want to advise new grads to always be confident because that is the key to success."

"I try to have a positive attitude towards everything. Working as an Account Coordinator is associated with stress and the human factor. To achieve results, you need to be able to communicate with people, hear them, and find common ground. This is different from work, for example, in Group Assignments. You will be working with the same people on many projects, so accepting people is a wise approach in the work of an advertiser."

"University was a great way to explore and debate a range of theories in a safe bubble. I had a great experience but felt I was still missing the practical experience needed to kick-start my career in advertising. Humber’s AAM program was the perfect boot camp to prepare me for the ad industry. I learned from seasoned industry vets with decades of experience, while being thrust into simulated real-world situations—my favourite being our pitch competition through the Humber Ad Centre. You’ll deal with surprises every day in this industry but the AAM program will fill in a lot of initial blanks. Looking back now, I can’t imagine starting my internship right out of university. I owe a lot to AAM to allow me to hit the ground running."

"From the first few classes in the AAM program, I knew that I’d found the right career as well as the right place to learn about it. I was able to explore my own strengths and weaknesses, gain valuable understanding of the advertising business, and make connections with the top agencies in the country as the program came to a close. I hit the ground running thanks to AAM and I believe it set me apart in a competitive industry."

"Humber AAM gave me the confidence and ability to contribute immediately upon entering the industry. The program allowed me to gain practical skills such as writing briefs, collaborating and presenting with creative teams, and putting together timelines, while also making sure I gained a thorough understanding of various industries and relevant business problems for each. It was made that much better by the professors and peers who pushed me to take risks and never stop growing, which is something I'll always carry with me."

"My time at Humber was significant to my personal development on many levels. The program made me consider how I present myself to others, how to work with people according to their strengths and how to delicately handle client communication. I'm grateful to all the Professors from whom I sought insight and advice. Their genuine interest in student development was apparent on many occasions, and was crucially important as I prepared to enter the Advertising industry. Thank you Humber, Hello AdWorld!"
