Program description
British Columbia’s creative technology sector—which includes video games, visual effects (VFX), animation, and extended reality (XR)—is rapidly becoming a significant source of high-quality, in-demand employment for the province. The Unity® for Creative Technology (UCT) program quickly provides learners with in-demand skills and competencies to support employment in the creative technology sector. It introduces learners to real-time interactive 2D and 3D essentials and fundamentals for building virtual experiences through the Unity platform, and prepares graduates for optional Unity certification to enhance their career paths.
This micro-certificate will introduce and explain the technologies that make interactive projects possible and walk learners through creating 2D and 3D apps and projects, focusing on Unity. UCT is an industry-relevant micro-credential delivered over six weeks, and blends bootcamp-style online synchronous (real-time) teaching with asynchronous learning activities, assignments and resources.
