By enrolling on a course there are potential opportunities to sit in with, or accompany, leading photographers on their assignments. We also offer unlimited access to our extensive reading and video library and support via telephone, fax and email.
Additional costs
Throughout the course, great emphasis is placed upon giving each trainee the skills necessary to recoup course fees at the earliest opportunity. Several of our course trainees have achieved this well before the end of the course. Any processing and printing costs, though minimal, are an additional cost. We ask students to use our designated laboratories for processing, so that we may be assured of consistent, high-quality prints.
