In this 15-week course, you'll attend our Birmingham city centre training room twice a week. You'll learn directly from professionals and get extensive hands-on experience with all the equipment and software.
You will progressively build skills with weekly lessons and consistent practice. Most importantly, you'll get regular, personal feedback on your projects and have the ability to ask questions and get immediate answers in class. This will help you understand and master each concept. You will also get access to recordings to catch up just in case you miss a session.
This consistent, guided approach does more than just teach you software - it keeps you motivated and accountable. You'll develop your own personal video work through ongoing projects while building lasting connections with a community of fellow creators.
We get it, this seems too good to be true!
Yes, it's completely free. There are no hidden costs or catches. Netcom Training provides the training is funded by the WMCA to help build skilled video professionals in the Birmingham area.
The commercial value of this type of training and in-person teachers would be well over £2,000. You're getting professional training, studio equipment access and software training that would normally cost thousands.
The course is 10 hours per week. This i split into one evening session and one full day session which normally takes place on the weekend.
Absolutely. With just two sessions per week in Birmingham city centre and catch-up recordings available, many working professionals successfully complete the course.
Theory sessions are recorded and available for catch-up. You'll also have support from instructors and fellow students to get back on track.
Yes! We start from the basics and build up. Many of our most successful students started with zero video experience.
Not at all. We provide all equipment in the class for your use. This includes cameras, laptops with Premiere Pro, lighting, and audio. However, having your own equipment and doing extra work at home will definitely help you make further progress!
You will use and learn Adobe Premiere Pro, the industry-standard editing software used by professionals and studios all over the world.
This course gives you the foundational skills and hands-on experience to confidently start your work in the video industry. You will be equipped to begin your journey as a freelance videographer, a social media content creator, or an in-house video assistant. For entrepreneurs, this is the practical first step toward building your own production service. Even if you're upgrading your current role, you'll be able to immediately improve the video quality for your business, employer, or personal channels.
We focus on practical, real-world projects from the start. Instead of theoretical assignments, you'll be encouraged to create videos for real clients—whether for local businesses, personal projects, or community groups. This means you'll graduate with a professional portfolio of genuine work to immediately show potential employers or clients already published on the web and social channels.
Unlike YouTube, you get structured learning, professional equipment, immediate feedback, and expert guidance tailored to your progress. You also get a teacher to correct your work to save you time in your learning and progress!
Our trainers are working professionals with 30+ years experience in video cameras, production, stills and lots of client work. They have hands on practical experience of what works in the industry today.
We're looking for enthusiasm and commitment, not prior experience. We want students who are motivated to learn and create. We want learners who are serious about learning new skills.
