Amateur Photographer & What Digital Camera: SPI update

Dear SPI student

In the next few weeks you’ll see some exciting changes taking place at the SPI:

- The AP Diploma has been updated and renamed the Foundation in Photography. The course remains the same in terms of what students learn, however the module book has been rewritten and the new title helps us distinguish between the two. The new name also reflects the fact that we’ll be offering more advanced, specialist subject courses in the future.

- August will see the launch of our Foundation in Digital Photography, a course aimed at digital beginners that will teach them how to use their camera and basic image editing techniques.

- In September we’ll unveil yet another new course, the Foundation in Digital Imaging Techniques. Students will learn how to take control of their photos using image editing software.

- Finally, we’re updating the Introduction to Digital Imaging module book. Once this has happened, the course will be renamed the Diploma in Digital Photography.

Please note that these changes do not affect students on the original courses: your tutor will continue to provide feedback and mark your work as they have done up to now.

I hope the new structure will provide students with a better understanding of what each course delivers. Thank you for your support!

Kind regards, Laura
