ELAM Curriculum

The courses at ELAM have been designed in conjunction with the creative industries to ensure all Trainees have the skills, knowledge and portfolio of work they need to enter the creative industries when they finish ELAM. There are three main courses at ELAM — Music, Games Design and Film & Television Production. Trainees on these courses take the UAL Level 3 Extended Diploma, equivalent to 3 A-Levels in UCAS points and contact time. Alongside any of these qualifications, all Trainees study Maths or English, as the skills developed in both are critical for success in the creative industries. The level at which Trainees study Maths or English depends on their starting level upon entry — we offer A-Levels, AS Levels, Level 3 Qualifications and GCSEs. Select a subject below to find out more.

In addition to these rigorous qualifications, all Trainees get extensive and direct access to the professional industries through weekly masterclasses, a unique mentoring programme and unparalleled work experience opportunities.

Underpinning all of this are the ELAM “Core Values” — we believe demonstrating these values is the key to long-term, sustained success for both Trainees and staff in everything at ELAM.
