As its a new year we are looking around at some of the training resources coming up that may suit any of you wanting to change career. There are a lot – we will also be running some free intro workshops at our workshop Wednesdays moving forward so keep an eye out for these. You won’t need any knowledge or experience for them, just pop along and bring a laptop.
Bath Spa Short courses
We have a call out from Sophie who work for Bath Spa University as the Marketing, Communications and Digital Coordinator for the Short Course Unit.
We have recently launched a new one-day short course in Immersive Media Essentials that might be of interest to your networks.
This course is designed to inform businesses of how they can use different immersive technologies such as virtual reality and immersive audio to become cutting edge in their sector. They’ll explore how immersive technology is currently being used by businesses, e.g. estate agents using VR to virtually stage empty homes and design studios letting their clients experience projects in 3D.
The next course takes place on 22 March, 11am – 4pm at The Studio in Bath and costs £169 per person
If you have any questions about this course, please get in touch at shortcourses@bathspa.ac.uk
