Creativity in advertising 2.0

In 2024, we introduced the Advertising Creativity course for the first time, based on the Madrid model: you spend the whole day learning, dissecting briefs, and over six months, you build a strong portfolio. Then you cross your fingers and start looking for work in agencies.

Times have changed, as have the school and the advertising industry, so even after a few years, the course couldn’t remain the same. This year, it’s been updated, expanded, and improved to meet today’s market needs. It will prepare you to work in agencies, companies with in-house creative teams, start-ups, or independently.

Duration: 6 months 3 times per week
Location: Cyber City (Švitrigailos 34)
Language: English (if we have foreign students)
Price: from 4950 EUR
