Advanced Media Production

Project description

Advanced Media Production aims to provide accredited training to enhance innovation and productivity within Welsh public and private sector industries.

Working with Aberystwyth University, we offer businesses and their employees access to high level training to enable them to become more sustainable and efficient and with a specific focus on new technologies and their potential for increasing growth and jobs.

Training is delivered in an industry-responsive and flexible format enabling students to work via supported distance learning to update their technical knowledge and improve their digital and media skills.

Digital and media production and distribution has become a ‘way of life’ for the majority of us with almost all social and professional communications conducted through digital channels.

Advanced Media Production supports Welsh businesses and organisations to stay at the forefront of developments within the digital and media industry. Its main objective is to support Welsh companies and organisations by providing heavily-subsidised training for their workforce on new technology and developments within the digital and media production areas.
