- How to control your route to ILR, in as little as 3 years
- Why about 3 months of income can be enough to apply, and you don't need to live in the UK to start

Your pathway
The missing piece: proof that wins your first clients
Clients pay for proof, and the Home Office only licenses a business with paying clients. Our Digital & AI Marketing Master Program gives you that proof from day one, through a U.S. Project Internship with a U.S. product-led company, plus coaching to win your first clients.
Unpaid and project-based, running alongside your 3 months of training. It is not a job offer.

- 2Work on a real project briefThe company provides the budget, so you run real campaigns.
- 3Win clients with your resultsA verified U.S. work reference letter and case studies for your proposals.
