How much time will the course take?

Weekly design sessions 2 x 90 minutes plus an addition 5 hours of weekly project work that you plan by yourself.

How do I prepare for the course?

You will get a small package of things to install and read up on before the course start so that we can hit the ground running when meeting for the first time.

What's required to pass the course?

You need to join 80% of lectures live with your camera on and finish the course project work according to the requirements. When you pass the course, we will send you a printed course certificate designed by a local artist as a design poster to have on your wall!

If I can't make it to some sessions, can I watch that afterwards?

Yes, all sessions are recorded. But since much of the work will be workshop style, it's hard to fully join in by watching it afterwards. If you miss it, you have to do the exercises from the lesson by yourself to account for that lesson towards passing the course.

Can my company pay for the seat?

Absolutely, a lot of companies do. You can choose to add a VAT number when booking your seat. Ask your boss and get going!
