Study in the UK

Portfolio Preparation

The course is for international students who would like to develop their skills to produce work for a portfolio or interview at university.

Through a series of briefs and projects, the course will cover all the fundamental skills required to build a portfolio; from basic drawing skills to more complex analytical and observational work. There will be advice and support available to help students plan their future. By the end of the course, you will have gained practical, valuable knowledge, as well as the confidence to talk about the work they have produced.
