Steffan Davies, SAE Europe Managing Director, said:
“I am very excited by the launch of an SAE campus in Leamington Spa – It is a perfect location as one of the ‘creative clusters’ identified by the Government in the UK Creative Industry landscape.
The Creative Industries are growing rapidly but employers are struggling to find graduates with both the technical and soft skills required. SAE Leamington Spa meets this challenge head on by co-locating and actively partnering with industry.
SAE campuses reflect professional environments and include industry-grade production facilities. Students undertake project briefs co-created with industry partners using a practical ‘creative studio’ approach, with collaboration encouraged across all creative media disciplines.
SAE Leamington Spa will provide students with a new and exciting pathway into employment and future success within the creative media industries.”
