Program Description
Children’s media is a key component to the Canadian entertainment industry. With rapid growth of the market, the demand for trained professionals is growing with it. Luckily, Centennial College offers a one-of-a-kind program that allows students to build and develop just the right skills to enter this line of work. The Children’s Media program provides students with hands-on experience, and prepares them for various career paths in the industry.
In only 3 semesters, students will build the capabilities to create content for children’s media, as well as learn how to manage and market various products. They will learn and master the true art of storytelling and put it to work with script writing. Video production and project coordination will come by as second nature after students complete their first two semesters at Centennial College.
Students' final semester is where all their skills get to shine during their work-placement period. This is their opportunity to find the area of children’s media that speaks to them.
While in the program, students will receive front line experience in:
- Creating a brand plan
- Starting and developing content for a YouTube channel
- Working alongside a client relevant to the industry – Scholastics Canada being just one of the clients who partner with the students
This will allow students to enter the workplace with a variety of experience in different sectors and completely understanding what to do in any situation.
With the Centennial College Children’s Media program, there are endless possible ways of how students can create the best moments for someone’s childhood.
