a) Joining the C.A.D. in mid-course
The C.A.D. is the only college of its kind in Belgium and France to offer a British- and American-style education.
The teaching is handled by top professionals who are all active in their respective fields. This helps students to come into contact with the best agencies and consultancies and undertake internships there while still studying.
That explains why the C.A.D. has for many years now been regarded as one of the best colleges of art in Europe: many leading figures of today’s design and advertising scenes, in Belgium and abroad, have studied or are teaching there.
PRACTICALITIES
More and more applicants wish to enter the C.A.D. in mid-course. These must submit a dossier comprising a detailed list of courses they have attended, obtained credits (ECTS) and marks, as well as practical assignments. This information will help the College council evaluate students and decide what course levels are best suited to them.
b) Major in advertising
The C.A.D. is an essential meeting point between the academic and the professional worlds.
Students with prior training in visual communication or corporate communication may wish, for instance, to pursue additional training in pure ADVERTISING CREATION or in GRAPHIC & WEB DESIGN.
Agencies want fast results. The practical approach and numerous internships favoured by the C.A.D. enable students to learn the tricks of their trades in real-life conditions.
Students can’t help benefiting from this additional training in contact with professionals and an active network. Their talents simply blossom and they become part of a kind of advertising elite.
