“Instável’s Production Course was an opportunity to find out and understand the importance of production work, and how much creativity there is in this process.”
Francisca Alves / Former student, 2023
“Instável’s Production Course gave me exactly what I was looking for, namely, trainers who currently work in the area, and modules that link theory with practice, allowing me to acquire useful knowledge for the workplace. There is a great diversity of modules and good monitoring of each person enrolled, whatever their background, which surprised me positively. You will definitely leave with a better understanding of what it means to be a producer and everything that comes with it!”
