On-Campus delivery is ideal for students who thrive in a face-to-face environment, including 2 hours of weekly on-campus classes plus 1 hour of national content (online or asynchronous), with classes running Monday to Friday in morning, afternoon, and evening sessions. Blended delivery combines 2 hours of live (on-campus or online) classes with 1 hour of national content each week, offering structured face-to-face learning with online flexibility. Both options provide access to SAE's national team of expert, industry-aligned faculty, national masterclasses, and guest lectures.

Students will gain practical experience through workplace internship opportunities that allow them to put their practical skills and advanced knowledge to the test in the real world. The course also includes collaborative group projects and culminates in a final project that pushes creative limits, all of which form a diverse portfolio. Students receive expert mentorship from those who have worked in the Creative Industries, ensuring they graduate career-ready.
