2016 NBA Associate Program Description

Program Overview

The NBA Associate Program is an immersion-based development experience that focuses on the culture, structure and operations of the NBA, and is designed to produce outstanding NBA professionals. The program rotates exceptional, recent college graduates through work assignments in departments across the NBA China. Associates learn the business of sports through direct exposure, launching their careers in an organization that strives to be the world’s most successful and respected sports league.

Associates rotate through areas of the business, typically in six month work assignments, assisting with high priority projects and global initiatives aligned with the company’s strategic priorities. Assignment areas may include:

- Global Marketing Partnerships - Digital/Interactive

- Global Merchandising Group - Content Development

- Global Strategy

At the conclusion of the rotational program, each Associate joins a department as a full time employee. Placements are based on the NBAC’s business needs, with consideration of the graduating Associates’ accumulated experience, career goals and performance during the rotational program.

Professional Development

The Associate program includes a robust curriculum of professional development activities. The program tips off with an in-depth orientation that builds the foundational skills required for success in the workplace. Throughout the year, Associates receive additional training to grow high-value professional skills such as relationship building, business writing and presentation skills. Associates complete several self-assessments (DiSC, Emotional Intelligence) and receive strategic coaching that identifies strengths and areas for development.
