You will leave with a fully mastered track, and all the steps to continue improving and forwarding your abilities for years to come.

Many learners these days prefer to use their own laptops on our courses for things like getting help customizing their set-up, and they have their project exactly as they left it in class to work on at home. So we made the course more affordable, but added a $75 supplement for learners who wish to hire an iMac loaded with software. Please ensure you book an iMac when you book your course if you need one. Controller keyboards, and headphones are provided for everyone.
36 Hours | $1499 + $100 Registration if booked 14 days before start or $1999 + $200 Registration | 33% off Live Online
