Do something different!

Come and study with us in Cape Town, South Africa, and give yourself something many students and graduates still do not have: real proof of what you have earned and what you are capable of.

Whether you are leaving school, changing direction, or already have a degree but need stronger practical work to open doors, this can be a smart next step.

At the Academy of Digital Arts, our accredited courses are built to help you move beyond theory alone. You will develop a portfolio, work on practical projects, and learn in a way that feels much closer to real creative industry practice.

Our lecturers bring industry experience into the classroom, so you learn from people who understand professional expectations, workflows, and production realities.

We have welcomed students from Austria, Germany, Turkey, France, the United States, and other countries. That international mix, combined with Cape Town’s creative energy and vibe, gives your studies a broader perspective.

Do not just study more. Study differently, build real work, and leave with something that helps you stand out.

Aside from learning new knowledge and skills while building a career starter portfolio you will get a lot of other benefits:

• Cost-Effective Living: Say goodbye to financial worries! Experience a significantly lower cost of living compared to Europe without sacrificing quality. Stretch your budget further and enjoy a comfortable lifestyle while pursuing your passion.
• Inspiring Environment: You will be working with and amazingly diverse crowd of people from all around the world and with all kinds of influence that will inspire and boost your creativty. Many of our foreign students have made friends for life while studying with us.
• Language Mastery: Sharpen your language skills in an immersive English-speaking environment. Expand your opportunities globally as you communicate confidently with peers and professionals alike.
• The best part: lush nature, beaches, culture, events, clubs, historic sites, wine farms, majestic mountains and more will make your time studying in Cape Town an unforgettable experience.

Our academy has been around since 2007.

All of our full-time courses (1 year, and 3 years) are fully accredited and the credit points are internationally recognized.

Our classrooms are fully equipped with hard- and software needed to have a full work and learning experience.

Aside from the on-campus and in Cape Town experience we also offer a remote learning experience if you cannot be or do not want to be away from home. The remote learning option means that you participate during the on-campus class hours just from the comfort of your home. We started running hybrid classes in 2020 and have a successful and working setup to provide that service.
