Marketing Training Room Expands Online Courses and Financial Aid Options to Deepen Digital Marketing Knowledge and Curb the Technical Skills Gap
Ohio Training Agency, Front Burner Marketing Offers Affordable, Online, and Self-Paced Education Model for Both New and Seasoned DIY Business Owners and Marketers
Cleveland, Ohio 06.08.2022-- Driven by automations, new technologies, and forced adoption of virtual interactions during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Marketing Training Room launched to help prepare practitioners and business owners for the growing global tech gap.
The Technical Skills Gap is a Pressing Issue
- By 2025, more than half of all employees around the world need to upskill or reskill to embrace new responsibilities (World Economic Forum).
- By 2030, the talent shortage and skills gap in the U.S. alone is expected to total a loss of $8.5 trillion (PwC).
- Only 34 percent of workers feel supported by their organization’s skill development opportunities. (MIT and Deloitte)
However, for the marketing industry, various educational resources provide digital courses and tuition options to help remove obstacles and make learning accessible—quick and simple yet effective.
Critical Digital Marketing Training
A recent training off-shoot of Front Burner Marketing—a digital agency founded in 2002—has become the go-to for digital skill development.

What Graduates Are Saying
“I truly appreciate your help with enrollment and the reimbursement process! The timing for the course was perfect. I was promoted around the same time as the course started, and part of my new role is helping to build a new website. I've already put many of the concepts covered in the course into practice, and know I will continue to utilize this skill set." ~ Sondra Downs, DMI Pro Grad
“I recently completed and received my digital marketing professional certification through Front Burner Marketing. They were able to assist me in getting registered for the classes as well as getting my business reimbursed for the cost of the classes using Ohio’s TechCred program. The team is friendly and easy to work with. The Program Director was always able to assist and encourage me throughout the entire program. The classes were easy to navigate from the comfort of my own home when it was convenient. After the certification exam, I got reimbursed for the program. Now, I have added more skills and a digital marketing professional certification to my resume. This is a value for me now and in the future. Thank you so much!” ~ Amy Kolarik, DMI Pro Grad
