How the programme works
In the studio and classroom
Classes take place in our classrooms, studios and labs in Beyoğlu, alongside practical projects.
Lesson replays
Lessons are kept in our cloud system for one week, so you can watch a lesson again or catch up on one you missed.
Certificate
Students who attend at least 70% of the lessons receive an Istanbul Media Academy certificate.
Career guidance
We work in partnership with a range of companies and institutions, and we give our students priority on the projects we run at the academy. Our instructors, all active in the industry, also let students know about openings in their own companies and networks.
