Program Goal
Laney serves a population that is outside Silicon Valley and who want to get inside, but are unprepared for these high-paying high-skilled jobs. The Immersive Design Certificate addresses that problem by training students in Augmented and Virtual Reality. AR/VR is growing exponentially, as shown by the many unfilled jobs seen daily in the job ads. Together with the visual storytelling skills gained in the many MEDIA department courses at Laney College, this AR and VR Certificate will equip students with entry level skills to extremely high paying internships in the industry.
