Overview

Video games are a source of enjoyment for people of any background and any age. 3D games have become one of the main sources of entertainment, with an industry that is booming, being worth $108.4 billion by the end of 2017. Creating games is an excellent way of getting involved in this industry, which will continue to grow in terms of popularity and how lucrative it is.

You will then learn how to create realistic characters and art using the MakeHuman open source 3D computer graphics software, and how to integrate them into Unity, giving you a complete skillset in game and character development.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
