Apply Now

Fancy learning about Game Design?

If you’re age 16-18 (or under 25 with an EHCP, or care-experienced) and not in school, a job, or training then we’ve got the course for you.

This is not school ICT lessons. Rather, it’s an introduction to the core skills needed to create your own computer games. At the end, you’ll receive a certificate of completion, help with your CV and job searching (in any industry).

When and where

This is a whole course, so you’re signing up for onboarding – where we’ll help you get set up and make sure you have all of the kit you need – followed by five workshops (held every Friday from the 25th April), including a field trip.

Onboarding takes place on the 11th April, 1-3pm at Pendleton Gateway (address below).
