SAIT New Media Production & Design

Practicum

This course is a work-study program that provides learners with practical work experience in the field by participation in professional multimedia production environments.

Our Practicum is part of regular course-work for students in their final semester of study. 96 hours of industry related work are to be completed between January and April. During this Practicum the student is expected to work on a project with an industry professional who acts as their mentor – to gain knowledge, skills, understanding and feedback on their own work as well as the demands of the industry.

Mentor Presentation

Below is the slide deck of a presentation that we have done for potential Practicum mentors in the past, which provides details on what to expect from the student, and what is expected of our mentors.
