How it works

Image

The same live class

You join the class as it happens at 186 Bree Street. You see the classroom, hear the lecturer clearly and follow the lecturer's shared screen.

Image

The same lecturers

You get feedback from the same practising creatives as the students on campus. Share your screen and they can look at your work live.

Image

The same qualification

Our Higher Certificates and our BA in Concept Art are accredited by the Council on Higher Education. You receive the same certificate as the students on campus.

Image

No need to come to campus

Attendance, briefs and submissions all happen online, and every lesson is recorded so that you can watch it again.

Image

What is included

Your fees include the software licence for your course for the length of your studies: Adobe Creative Cloud for Concept Art, Graphic Design and Game Development, and Figma for UX/UI Design. Concept Art students also receive a Wacom Intuos tablet at the start of their first year, which we courier to you.

Image

What you need

A computer that can run the software for your course, a stable internet connection, a webcam and a headset with a microphone. Ideally a second screen, so that you can follow the lecturer and work at the same time.

Where our students study from

Our virtual students join us from Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Gqeberha, Bloemfontein, Polokwane, the Garden Route, the Wild Coast, Windhoek and beyond. About 4 in 10 of our full-time students study this way.
