A Game an Employer Can Play

Study at Your Own Pace
Fully online and self-paced over seven to eight months. You start with a cohort and finish when it suits you.
Where These Skills Could Take You
Junior Unity Developer, Junior Game Developer, Interactive Developer. These are the seats where making games is the job, and the same skills travel into VR, simulation and film, so games can be the start and not the limit.

Scripting gameplay and building scenes in the editor.
Junior Game Developer
Working across mechanics, audio and interface.
Interactive Developer
Building interactive work beyond games, in VR and AR.
Game Tester and QA Support

Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every role is different, and some need more study or experience. Unity skills also carry into simulation, enterprise training, interactive media and film production.

What Makes It Different
Code, a certification and a finished game: this course gives you all three, so an employer sees what you know, a credential that backs it, and something to play.
You learn to write, read and debug the scripts behind movement, input and scoring, so the code in your game is yours.
Ten hands-on sessions get you ready for the Unity Certified Associate: Game Developer exam, the credential with Unity's own name on it.
You build one polished, playable slice of a game from start to finish, then learn to pitch it. You walk into an interview with a game on the table.
