I was looking at The British Academy of Photography which isn't formally a college or university and they are accredited to BTEC for HNCs and HNDs in photography. For the HNC the home study is £1,195 which isn't bad at all compared to a college or university that would charge £9,000 for tution fees for one year for the HNC. I was wondering even though the HNC from The British Academy of Photography is formally accredited by BTEC is it worth getting over a college or uni HNC? The reason why is a professional place that wants to hire someone might frown on a HNC that isn't accredited by a college or univeristy. Do you think that NOT being accredited by a college or university might "close" some doors when prospecitve emoployers see that it isn't via a college or unviersty?
If it doesn't make any difference at all I would rather get a BTEC HNC via the British Academy of Photography and save myself £8,000, I just want to make sure that if I did go that route that perspective employers would be happy to take a none college or uni qualified person on. What are your thoughts on the matter?
