I knew very little about photography when I started the course, but as I worked through the modules, my knowledge and skills grew. This course has pushed me out of my comfort zone, and it was the best thing that could have happened to me.

I chose the Diploma over the Certificate as I was looking for a career change and the Diploma offered more business content as well as photography content. Looking back now, it is amazing to see how far I have come. I was able to do the course in my own time and still look after 3 young kids.
