This is a broad-based two year course with an integrated creative and technical study of media production which looks at core aspects of the media industry. Although the course is mainly practical by developing skills such as team building, assignments, communication, presentations, software skills and creative product production there are written elements that must be covered in each unit.
The qualification is internally assessed and then moderated by a visiting moderator. The course is both rewarding and challenging and is designed to assist students in coping with the ever changing world of media and communication. Learners gain knowledge and understanding of creative digital media production and develop an understanding of how to use software used within the industry.
