This programme is also relevant for existing industry professionals seeking to enhance, update or diversify their skill sets. Learners gain the necessary critical awareness, creative focus and contemporary production skills to advance their career paths.

Most importantly this programme will facilitate learners’ visual voice to contribute their choice, medium and format of visual expression through the completion of a visual story that contributes to the compendium of stories that record and describe our world for others. This may be an avant-garde, commercial, artistic or traditional treatment. The public dissemination of creative work will place their practice within a community and network of creators that will mediate their practice and place them amongst the work of others.
