NZ Certificate in Art & Design [Level 3]

The New Zealand Certificate in Art & Design is a project based programme for school leavers and adults who require an introduction to a range of skills and knowledge in the creative professions. You will develop your creative skills preparing you for a career in the fields of arts, design, screen production, fashion and music.

This programme has ‘real life’ opportunities with projects, in a variety of contexts. It will introduce you to the bigger picture of the creative sector and how it operates both locally in Aotearoa New Zealand and globally.
