I absolutely love this program. As someone who creates content for social media, this program is incredibly valuable. I learned so many techniques and finally understand how professional video editing works.

I’ve learned so much in every class I’ve taken…the projects that have shaped my current portfolio have shown me the tip of the iceberg of what can be achieved, and it’s really exciting to keep pushing my limits as I continue.

The Capstone and Portfolio Project course was an excellent conclusion to the Associate degree program. I finished with a clear understanding of how to present myself as a photographer and how to continue building my portfolio beyond the classroom.

This program was challenging in the best way. It pushed me to look more closely at the details that make design effective, including research, visual hierarchy, typography, composition, historical influence, and overall concept development. I learned a lot from having to think beyond just making something look nice and instead consider why certain design choices work.

Studying at Sessions has given me a much stronger foundation to build on. Through the coursework and assignments, I’ve gained a better understanding of visual storytelling. I’ve learned how to think intentionally about framing, pacing, and the emotional arc of a piece. I have also learned how my editing and directorial decisions help create an experience for the viewer.

Sessions online program has allowed me to overcome the hurdles of my financial and schedule restrictions, and it has been an absolutely life-changing experience. To have everything I was learning come together in a new medium was a truly amazing feeling—challenging, rewarding, revelatory…you name it. It felt great.

I wished I had known about this program 10+ years ago—I used to help publish a bimonthly magazine for a civic organization, and my InDesign class would have cut our workload for preparing the magazine by 75%. The instructor’s grading and assistance were fantastic.

I had a lot of fun in my course. The lessons were well delivered, understandable, and enjoyable. The discussions contributed to my understanding of the coursework and promoted the sharing of ideas. Each exercise challenged me to put into action what I had learned in the course.

This was a fantastic alternative to traditional school. I feel like the instructors made it easy for me to learn with written and video instructions. I’m looking forward to applying my knowledge that I have now in video production.

Sessions College provided exactly what I was looking for, even though I wasn’t an “artist” with a portfolio. I wanted to better educate myself in the fine arts and learn the basics of drawing and painting. I have been able to travel and take my studies with me. I really like that I can go online anytime and work on one of my courses!

I’ve always been a creative person, but have never had any real artistic abilities. I finally feel like I have an outlet for my over-analytical brain to create art through building beautiful, functional websites. For the first time in my professional career, work doesn’t feel like work.

I had thought about a degree in Digital Arts for a long time but couldn’t commit to another BA or an AA degree. The Sessions Professional Certificate has been perfect for me so far in terms of timing, flexibility, and cost.
