Certificate IV in Visual Arts

The ‘Professional Artist Program’ is a two-year course that delivers three qualifications combined – in year one students will study a CUA41320 Certificate IV in Visual Art and a CUA51120 Diploma of Visual Arts combined to form a full-time study load. In year two, students will then progress to a CUA60720 Advanced Diploma of Visual Arts.

In the first year of the program we take emerging artists and build a foundation to their existing creative technique. They will trial a variety of art mediums, have access to facility and mentoring and develop alongside other likeminded artists. In the second year, we continue that journey and in addition look to facilitate real industry outcomes along with ongoing coursework.

The course has been designed to turn individuals into the best artist they can be, whilst also providing opportunities for a variety of career paths within the creative industry.
