The barriers to accessing quality education are being slowly shattered, thanks to the internet and the rise of remote learning. However, here at OCAD, we have been championing online education for over two decades! Our commitment to accessible education doesn’t end there though, as we also offer SEND courses and diplomas for those with additional needs. In this blog post, we'll break down our SEND Level 3 Foundation Photography Diploma.
Accessibility
One of the most significant advantages of online learning is its ability to cater to all students. Traditional classrooms often have limitations in terms of accessibility, whether due to geographical constraints, financial barriers, or disabilities. However with our Level 3 Foundation Photography Diploma, these barriers don’t exist. We are able to work with students regardless of where they live, and we are able to be a named provider for EHCPs (Education, Health, and Care Plans).
Flexibility
Our courses offer unmatched flexibility, allowing students to learn at their own pace and on their own schedule. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for individuals with busy lifestyles, or those with disabilities. Our SEND Level 3 Foundation Photography Diploma embraces this flexibility, providing learners with the freedom to engage with course materials when it's most convenient for them.
Community
Despite the virtual nature of OCAD, students in programs like the Level 3 Foundation Photography Diploma form tight-knit communities where they can connect, collaborate, and inspire one another. Through discussion forums, feedback and virtual meetups, learners from all backgrounds come together to share ideas, provide feedback, and inspire each other's growth as photographers.
Tailored Support
To further cater to the individual needs of SEND students, the course provides additional bespoke learning materials tailored to different learning styles and preferences. These resources are designed to enhance understanding, engagement, and retention of course content. Moreover, regular progress reports are provided to track each student's development and to address any challenges or areas for improvement.
Conclusion: Empowering Aspiring Photographers Everywhere
In conclusion, online learning, exemplified by courses like the SEND Foundation Fine Art program, is revolutionizing photography education by breaking down barriers and fostering inclusivity. Through flexible learning options, technological advancements, supportive communities, and affordable pricing, online courses make it possible for individuals from all walks of life to pursue their artistic aspirations and unleash their creativity behind the lens. As we embrace the digital age of education, let us celebrate the power of online learning in making photography accessible to all.
Becoming a skilled photographer should be accessible to all, regardless of background or circumstance. With online learning at OCAD, we're levelling the playing field and empowering students with the tools, support, and community they need to succeed.
