Learners develop associated skills in their chosen specialist area, building a portfolio of work. The course is run with our partner Glyndŵr University and successful learners graduate with an FdA awarded by Glyndŵr University. A key feature of the course is the focus on Creative Futures, entrepreneurship and industry placement. This seeks to reinforce theory and practical work within the wider context of creative industries.
