Has anyone taken a course from these guys? Is it worth $875?
From their site:
ASET Level 4 Accreditation
Our photography course is fully accredited by ASET, and on completing it you get an award equivalent to Level 4 of the National Learning Framework (post A level/HNC/HND standard). ASET is a national Awarding Body recognised by the Department for Education and Skills and by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority in Britain.
Is that worth anything?
Photography Course Diploma Students who satisfactorily complete the course are awarded the Diploma in Professional Photography. They receive the certificate, and the right to use the words Dip. Pro.Photo. (Inst. F.P).
Is it worth the paper it's printed on?
I'm trying to decide whether it's worth supplementing my forum-reading, book study, and practice with something more formal in order to build my business.
Do customers look for qualifications beyond your portfolio?
If you have a low or no opinion on the Institute of Professional Photography, is there another training program you'd recommend?
