Value proposition

AEF connects the advertising, marketing and academic communities to educate and inspire the next generation of talent.

The ANA Educational Foundation (AEF) is the bridge connecting the marketing, advertising and academic communities.

Our Campus Speakers Program brings advertising professionals to colleges and universities nationwide to conduct one-day programs with students and faculty. Speakers are carefully chosen, and programs customized to meet your class objectives.

The Visiting Professor Program is a two-week fellowship for professors of advertising, marketing, communications and the liberal arts. In 2018, over 30 professors were hosted by advertising agencies in NYC and Chicago.
