The Digital Photography - Level 3 Course has been written to provide you the student with a sound understanding of how a camera works and the background to camera care.

The home study courses are for people who love to take pictures, but want to gain an understanding of the mechanics of photography.

The good thing about the home study courses are that they are for all ages and all ability levels.

It is a thorough "everything you need to know" course with lots of tips and information which other books, courses etc. won't tell you - secrets from the insider who has written the home study courses.

If you're brand new to photography or picking up a camera after years of not using one, this is the course for you.

The home study courses are ideal for students who are looking for a new hobby, thinking of a new career in photography or even if you just want to understand how to take great photographs for your next family party!

There are many different events where photographers are needed:

  • Parties and Celebrity events

  • Magazines
  • Television
  • Advertising agencies
  • Lifestyle portraiture
  • Relaxed, home-based daylight portraiture

Course Duration & Support:

Assessment:

You will be assessed on coursework which is detailed in the course materials. There are 12 assignments in the course (a mix of written and practical). There are also over 20 self-assignments which really add value to the course by allowing the student to build their knowledge about significant areas of photography in a fun and challenging way. Your work can be sent back to your course tutor by email or by post.

Qualification:
 

The award is gained from your successfully completed coursework so there is no exam to complete.

On successful completion of the home study courses students will be awarded a Level 3 Digital Photography Award.

This award has been independently accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) and is comparable to working at A Level or NVQ Level 3.

The award is issued through NCFE. NCFE is recognised as an awarding body by the qualification regulators ('regulators') for England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The regulators are the Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator (Ofqual) in England, the Department for Children, Education, Lifelong Learning and Skills (DCELLS) in Wales and the Council for Curriculum, Examinations and Assessment (CCEA) in Northern Ireland.
