The Arcademy • Arcade Studios

“Arcademy” is a paid internship program built for students who want to break into the world of digital marketing.

Whether you’re studying full-time or part-time, it’s your chance to step into the real world of marketing and work alongside some of the best in the business.

Arcademy isn’t an internship for pencil pushers. This is a hands-on, real-client, high-impact work environment that allows students to work shoulder to shoulder with Arcade’s team of specialists in strategy, creative, content, and social media.

How we got here

We remember what it was like starting out: no roadmap, no easy breaks, and a lot of figuring things out the hard way. Marketing can be tough to get into, let alone to advance in. We noticed that some of the most notable teams and boardroom tables were missing key people and voices, so we decided to do something about it.

Arcademy was built to give the next generation of marketers a real opportunity. Not busy work. Not coffee runs. But meaningful projects, mentorship, and momentum that launches careers. This program is our way of giving back and helping shape the faces of the future marketing industry by unlocking hidden talent, providing genuine experience, and offering a chance to build a meaningful portfolio.

Maybe your future career starts (and even stays) right here at Arcade.

Where it happens

Arcademy runs out of our two offices: Calgary (HQ) and Vancouver.

We’re big fans of in-person collaboration and mentorship. You’ll learn side-by-side with experts in design, strategy, media, copywriting, project management, and more. Sorry, no remote opportunities are available at this time.

Hear straight from our interns

Arcademy was one of the best things to help me differentiate myself from all the other graduating students.

I was able to bring everything the team taught me to all my classes which helped me attain my 3.99 GPA and to this day, I've applied my learnings as an intern to my current job.

I'm grateful that Mike and Mitzi started a fantastic program that fuelled my marketing passion and I'm excited to see how many more students this will positively impact.
