SAE Institute is proud to announce that, along with two of their educational partners, it has been awarded Skillset Media Academy status by the Government.
The new Middlesex Skillset Media Academy – a three-way partnership
between the SAE Institute, Middlesex University and Top TV Academy –
is one of only 17 institutions in the country to gain this
recognition. This status has been awarded by the government for the
excellence and forward-looking nature of the media-related courses
and education all three partners deliver to their students – and it
has been bestowed by the newly formed government Department for
Innovation, Universities and Skills.
SAE Institute, Middlesex University and Top TV Academy got together
to bid for Skillset Media Academy status earlier in the year, as did
more than 100 other institutions and partnerships around the country.
Of these only 17 were considered to deliver the high standards of
media education necessary, as well as leading the development of
today’s creative industries with the aim of making sure that the UK
has the most talented and skilled media workforce in the world.
The partnership that now makes up this Skillset Media Academy offers
a comprehensive media education along with practical hands-on skills
for everyone from beginners to established media professionals. The
partners teach traditional Audio and TV production up to pioneeringinteractive media design – and everything in between.
Matthias Postel, Head of SAE Institute in the UK, commented: “SAE is
excited to be part of this vibrant partnership. We bring our
expertise in audio engineering and digital film production to the
table, augmented by Qantm College, our specialist division of games
design and 3D animation. We have been a global partner of Middlesex
University for the past ten years and the Skillset partnership is yet
another milestone.”
Dr. Maggie Butt, Head of the Middlesex Skillset Media Academy,
commented: “We are extremely proud to be given this seal of approval
for our courses. We have always believed that the media education we
provide is among the best in the country – now its official”.
Liz Mills, Director of Top TV Academy, commented: “Top TV is
delighted and excited to be in partnership with Middlesex and SAE,
who together are leaders in their field. This new Academy will offer
cutting edge opportunities for those entering the industry and open
up life long learning for those already established”.
About the partners:
Middlesex University and SAE Institute are international education
providers, uniquely placed to give students today’s vital global
perspective, while Top TV Academy provides in-service training for
many of the country’s most important independent television
companies. Together these three partners produce a talented and
skilled media workforce who are the creative leaders, entrepreneurs
and innovators of the future.
