FC-D09Diploma

Diploma in Animation and Film Production

The screen economy Uganda consumes is largely made elsewhere, and that is the opportunity: a young, connected population is a growing content market, broadcasters and streamers are commissioning African stories, the advertising industry needs a constant stream of production, and the global animation and post production industry buys remote talent at rates set abroad.

FC-D10Diploma

Diploma in Hospitality and Tourism Experience Management

Tourism is one of Uganda's largest foreign exchange earners and a named priority growth sector, and its constraint is repeatedly identified as service quality and management capacity rather than attractions: the country has gorillas, the Nile and the equator, and loses revenue to competitors with better trained people.
