Term 1–3 Intakes – 2021

Creative by Madison-Gypsy Haley from Onslow College Wellington Character Design – 2020

Why choose our NCEA Credit Courses?

At Yoobee we create creatives and we think this starts at high school. Our courses are specially designed for high school students, and as a Ministry of Education approved provider, we know the value of discovering design early.

Rapid changes in technology, art and communication are increasing the need for high quality, innovative, designers. Our programmes

combine a range of skills, techniques, software and practical learning.

Students who desire higherlevel learning and strive to produce work to a high standard will excel in this course. Ideally students who apply for these courses will make the most of this limited spaced opportunity.

FAQ

What type of credits are they?

These credits are Unit Standard based.

Can I do this course if I am not in Y13?

Yes – If you are completing NCEA, your school gives you permission and you feel as though you would be able to complete this level of work. These credits are Level 3.

When is the latest I can submit my application?

You can apply right up until the day before the start date of the course. Places are limited so enroling as soon as possible is reccomended to avoid disapointment.

Can this course help me build skills and a portfolio to apply for a full-time Yoobee course?

Absolutely! These courses are perfect to build your skills and create work to add to your portfolio. We even help you with your application to a fulltime course during the course.

Even though this course is an intro level, is there anything I can be familiar with before-hand?

Feel free to ask the course coordinator for specific advice on the programme. Having some understanding of the software involved in the course is always a plus!

Do I need my own software and equipment for my self-directed work?

How much homework is involved?

There is 3–4 hours per week outside of class time (30–40 over the course)

Do you accept Domestic and International students?

Yes definitely! We just need to ensure students who are International, will be able to clearly communicate with your tutor (Oral and Written)
