>> Why should my child join this course?

The skills your child will learn in this course are separated in 2 categories, technical skills & soft-skills.

The technical skills your child learns in this course will be highly transferable in other industries outside of 3D games development. Skills such as 3D level design, lighting & materials, and creating interactive applications, are also used in industries such as engineering, architecture, product visualisation, virtual production and much more.

Additionally, your child will learn valuable soft skills such as problem solving & creative thinking, which will improve their everyday tasks.
