Level 3 BTEC Extended Diploma in Digital Media

If you want to work in media in 21st Century you need to get to grips with Digital Technology. This course will give you the skills and knowledge to work across all aspects of the new media industries.

If you are looking for a broad skill set to open as many doors as possible into a new media job or University degree and are interested in or currently studying ICT, design technology or art and design then this course could be for you. The Extended Diploma in Digital Media is equivalent to 3 A Levels grade C or above and is an alternative way to progress to University providing the vital bridge between school and University.

You will have the opportunity to work in the following subject areas, web design, video and film production, sound design and production, graphic design, photography, games design and animation. We have excellent specialist equipment, studios and workshops together with professional standard digital software and resources.

The natural progression from the Extended Diploma course is to Higher Education either on Island or in the UK. Our students' breadth of experience and portfolio give them a definite advantage over A Level students when it comes to UCAS, and we have a very strong track record of students getting into higher education courses of their first choice. Higher Education is not the only option as many of our students gain employment in industry, here on the Isle of Man or setting up independent businesses or working for professional agencies.
