Portfolio Preparation
Tuesday 23 June - Thursday 9 July  13 Days Over Three Weeks (4 days, 5 days, 4 days) All students of NCAD must be 16 before commencing. Please ensure the student name and date of birth is on the booking and not the person paying   This course is suitable for individuals (both school leavers and mature students) preparing a portfolio for entry into third level art and design colleges. Portfolio preparation focuses on the development of visual ideas and skills leading to the creation of a body of work for your application to first year art and design studies. Emphasis will be placed on the development of drawing and observational skills through studio and location work. Participants are obliged to undertake personal projects outside of course hours and these will be monitored on a day-to-day basis. Tutors skilled and experienced in portfolio teaching deliver this course. Our period of study is a preparatory programme only. Students should not assume that attending this course would give them an advantage over others who wish to access the NCAD full time degree courses.   Please note: NCAD is a third level education environment and that while we record attendance, we do not contact parents and guardians if students fail to attend. Students attending NCAD must be 16 years of age or older.
