“Since being on EON ECS course my general knowledge of 3D applications has increased. The main skills I’ve learnt so far and that have helped me a lot are my management skills and working in a professional manner which I think is the biggest part of making the jump from University or College to real industry experience.”

“I like the EON ECS because it has the latest technology that other schools do not have yet such as Virtual Reality, stereoscopic projection, real time game simulation etc. Everything is provided by the school with no costs to the students. I like that it is totally free. You get to meet a lot of interesting people, like the Hollywood team and you just have fun. I am really happy!”
