About Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS)
The Australian Film, Television and Radio School is Australia’s national screen arts and broadcast school based at the Entertainment Quarter in Sydney. There are a number of pathways for talented and creative students to access courses at AFTRS and develop skills at different stages of their careers. Award course programs are structured around three levels: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. At the Beginner level students can study a Foundation Diploma - a full time course for those just starting out in the industry and structured around a series of practical workshops. At the Intermediate level students already committed to an area of specialisation with some experience in their chosen field have the opportunity to develop their skills by enrolling in a Graduate Certificate. Graduate Certificates are offered part time and are well suited for people who want to combine work and study. At the Advanced level experienced practitioners with a proven track record in their specialisation can apply for highly intensive and challenging Graduate Diplomas that are cross-disciplinary and collaborative. AFTRS students are also given the opportunity to make unparalleled connections with industry while they are studying at the School.
