The majority of training on FT2 happens on production with trainees being attached to crews and learning from them. In addition to this apprenticeship-like training model FT2 trainees attend short course training provided by industry recognised training providers.
Production assistant trainees will attend the following courses:
Induction training including Health and Safety Training run by Hannonmedia Ltd.
A technical introductory course run by VET (Video Engineering Training).
Business Skills training run by VET.
Each trainee will attend one grade specific short course or masterclass e.g. Final Draft course run by National Film and Television School Short Course Unit.
