FREE Arts & Design<br />
course, with NCEA built in<br />
For those looking for a role that combines<br />
artistic and digital talents, then this<br />
outstanding, FREE, entry level course<br />
delivered by local Training Provider Trainme,<br />
is perfect for those wishing to pursue, graphic<br />
design, photography or digital media as a<br />
career.<br />
The course covers the introduction to media<br />
techniques such as drawing and photography.<br />
Students will learn to use design software<br />
and create their own design concepts while<br />
collaborating with other students on creative<br />
projects.<br />
This course is FREE to students aged 16 to 19<br />
and they only have to have NCEA 1 to join.<br />
Students without NCEA 1 can be admitted, if<br />
they show artistic or digital aptitude.<br />
“Many feel that school is not working for<br />
them or they left without qualifications,”<br />
says Rhys Pollard, Marketer with tertiary<br />
educator Trainme. “While not necessarily<br />
academically minded, they do have artistic<br />
talents and are very much into digital<br />
technology.”<br />
“This FREE six-month Trainme course,<br />
combines these in a very hands-on, practical<br />
way, giving them an intro<br />
into various digital media.<br />
This way, they can decide<br />
which direction to pursue<br />
as their career focus.”<br />
“As an NZQA approved<br />
programme, NCEA credits<br />
are built in, so if they<br />
apply themselves, they<br />
can graduate with a New<br />
Zealand Certificate in Arts<br />
and Design Level 2, as well<br />
as gaining credits towards NCEA level 1 or<br />
2.” Says Pollard.<br />
“NCEA results will depend on how many<br />
credits they bring to the course to start with,<br />
but as it’s a fun subject, it won’t feel like school<br />
at all.”<br />
Successful Graduates from this programme<br />
