Part-time Courses & Intensives at VanArts are an excellent way to introduce yourself to our institute and what we teach. They provide a basic introduction for learning new skills, helping to decide on a career choice, or as a first step towards studying in our full-time programs. Part-time courses typically start in January, May and September, and meet once a week in evenings or weekends, and "intensives" are held in the summer months for 2-4 weeks.
If you are an international student, you must already be living in the Vancouver area on a valid Immigration visa before registering for a part-time course. If registering from abroad, we recommend our 1-month summer intensives.
