We're proud to announce that CG Spectrum is a certified school through The Rookies!
Rookies Certified Schools are independently reviewed and assessed by invite only, ensuring only the very best schools are accepted and the accolade remains exclusive.
The accolade is a quality mark which identifies the schools that offer the highest quality education, and are best suited to prepare students for a career in the creative industries.
A number of important factors are taken into consideration when assessing each school:
1. Relationship with industry
The relationship between schools and industry is a critical part of any good education. Rookies accreditation relies on making sure each school has a strong relationship with a range of local production studios and industry professionals.
2. Alumni feedback & success stories
Becoming a Rookies Certified School requires submitting testimonials from recent alumni to make sure they are truly happy and impressed with the education provided by the school. Success stories from recent graduates are equally important.
Some of the testimonials from CG Spectrum include:
- Sebastien Muller, Senior Animator at Ubisoft, France
- Vanessa Rossi, Key Animator, MPC Canada
- Subhaan Asif, FX Artist, Luma Pictures |
3. Software and curriculum
Learning the right software and skills is one of the most important aspects of any student. The Rookies panel makes sure that accredited schools not only have a well-planned curriculum but also teach relevant and up-to-date software.
4. Staff development & training
All schools love to showcase their amazing staff that have worked on the latest blockbuster movie or AAA game. The Rookies require schools to show they have development and training plans in place to keep staff ahead of the game.
5. Studios that hire graduates
In addition to having a strong relationship with industry, The Rookies closely review where recent graduates are being hired. This provides a great indication of how industry-ready students are and if strong relationships are in place to help students with interviewing and job applications.
6. Quality of student work
The independent panel reviews the work of all students, not just graduates. It's important for them to see the progression of skills all the way to an industry level. It's not always about showing the best work, the journey is equally important and a factor that truly highlights a schools worth.
