Harlan Media Apprenticeship Program
The Problem:
The White House and Congress agree that job creation is critical to revitalizing our battered economy. And, nowhere are jobs more desperately needed than in the African-American community of Newark , where unemployment rates have climbed to 16.8% - and over 40% for males, the highest rate of unemployment since 1984!
To address this problem of lack of opportunity and corporate partnerships, Harlan created Harlan Media LLC
HARLAN MEDIA Communications (HMC) was a strategic business model positioned to create 34 long-term, sustainable jobs. By becoming a lead supplier of government and corporate procurement contracts, HMC had been uniquely suited to provide "Madison Avenue" advertising and marketing expertise for federal, state, and city advertising assignments. With our WMBE certification and HUBZone status, HMC enables government agencies and national corporations to achieve their economically underutilized business goals and objectives.
Harlan Media partnered with Essex County College to established an Apprenticeship Program geared towards providing hands-on experience for exceptional second year students trained in the marketing, advertising, media and video production fields.
To combat the austere realities of youth employment in Newark by creating a synergy between seasoned,
award-winning professionals and students who possess a wealth of raw talent, an abundance of seminal ideas, and a burning desire to succeed.
Harlan Media’s Apprenticeship Program covers communication, video journalism, business development, government procurement, web design and content creation.
