Graduate Diploma of Creative Advertising
What is Creative Advertising?
A career in ideas
This programme isn’t about ads that harrass, interrupt, and stalk you. It's about ideas. Ideas that surprise, delight, provoke. Ideas that create their own shareability and their own PR.
Ideas that change culture, change behaviour and help change the world. Sometimes that can mean creating ads.
But only if they’re ads that people notice, love, and talk about. Sometimes that can means applying your creativity to tech to create new products or services that can help to solve urgent social and environmental problems.
So, if you have a creative itch, if you want to help solve problems, if you want a career in ideas, if you want it yesterday. You should talk to us. ASAP.
What makes this programme different?
The best way to learn to thrive in a creative department is to be in one. So that’s what we do. We immerse you in a full time creative department.
Our campus and online space looks and behaves like a creative department: Your tutors are creative directors.
You do all your work in a creative team of copywriter and art director.
The programme is organised around global and national industry competitions. All work is marked or judged by industry.
Each person has an industry mentor for the final 10 weeks. Under their coaching, you and your partner will create a final end of year show portfolio.
No lectures, no essays. Just you doing, with industry and tutors guiding you from the side.
It works, year after year. Seen as recently as last year, where, despite lockdowns, 90% of our teams were picked up by agencies within one week of their end of year show.
