Frequently Asked Questions
TICE is an excellent opportunity to be involved in portfolio building projects. We have a range of projects to choose from in a variety of creative disciplines.
A successful TICE student commits to the project they have chosen. They learn how to manage their time around other commitments they have in school or personally.
The TICE team are here to help and support you with your project every step of the way.
