T Levels for Media, Broadcast and Production

In our Industry Excellence Academy, you can study one of our T Level or T Level Foundation Year programmes in Media, Broadcast and Production. They have been developed in collaboration with employers, and combine theory, practical and classroom learning with a minimum 15-day (Foundation Year) or 45-day (T Level) industry placement. If you opt to take a T Level, you will spend 20% of your time on an industry placement and 80% in the classroom.

Working so closely with employers means you’ll benefit from courses that are aligned with current industry skills demand, as well as a range of industry-level activities and lessons.

This will include masterclasses and lessons delivered by industry experts, visits from guest speakers at the forefront of the industry and industry-standard ‘live briefs’, that will see you working on the kind of projects you’d be completing once you begin your career in media, broadcast and production.

Once you complete your journey in our Industry Excellence Academy, you will have the qualifications you need to take the next steps towards an amazing career, as well as the experience and skills that will help you stand out to future employers.
