Do you want to learn how to make more digital content? Are you already a fan of photography or podcasts but want to know more about social media or find out about video editing or vice versa?

Zain’s Story
21-year-old Zain Sattar from Cheetham Hill has benefitted from his time at SharpFutures.
He says, “When I arrived at SharpFutures in 2018 I had a lot of interests but wasn’t really able to identify where they might lead in the future. Before long however I was able to pursue new interests at the same time as working alongside the team and finding where I was best suited to be involved in the daily business of the company. Since then I have become adept at Social Media and have run some of our Feeds but not only that – I have discovered a passion for photography which I am now able to pursue and blend into the mix of our work and the content we create for our clients. I really would recommend this new course to anyone keen to thrive in the creative digital world”
To participate in the course you will need access to:
- A computer with online access
- A webcam for face-to-face masterclasses, online training and webinars
- A mobile phone
