Apple University, the secretive in-house training program of the tech titan, has raided Wenner Media and hired away it chief revenue officer.
David Kang, a Harvard Business School grad, was Wenner's chief digital officer before being elevated to the CRO job this past June.
Kang is headed to Cupertino, Calif., by Sept. 30, sources said, where he will be a teacher.
A spokeswoman for Wenner, home of Rolling Stone, Men's Journal and Us Weekly, confirmed only that Kang had "resigned" — although he was still in the office as of Thursday.
Kang did not return a call seeking comment.
Apple University was started by Steve Jobs in 2008 and is run by the former head of the Yale School of Management, Joel Podolny.
We asked Apple for confirmation that Kang was headed to Apple — and to confirm his job title — but had not gotten a response by press time.
Apple is said to frown on its employees discussing the University, which is a year-round classroom training center.
On the Wenner front, it suggests the Jann Wenner's succession plan may have hit a speed bump.
Kang had developed mobile web apps for the company's three magazines and negotiated a content deal with Yahoo!
He was seen as a vital ally of Gus Wenner, the 23-year old son of the company founder.
The younger Wenner is being piped as the near-term successor to take over the company from his 68-year old dad.
No replacement has been named for Kang.
