About this course
The Certificate of Higher Education in Immersive Performance Practice is a one-year course intended to provide a foundation in performance to prepare you for further studies, advanced performer training and a career in the performance industry. This includes providing you with a forum to develop practical skills, knowledge, confidence, and experience.
Fusing the worlds of performance, audience participation and digital technology, this Certificate of Higher Education offers performing arts students the opportunity to explore the developing world of immersive performance and looks to explore creative responses to a range of media, including immersive and digital theatre, interactive performance, digital storytelling, podcasts and more.
Expect to refine your performance skills, experiment with interactive elements and push the boundaries of traditional theatrical practice. We will also encourage you to develop an awareness of what is needed in the industry and underpin your practice with critical thinking and analysis.

Assessment methods
We want you to produce creative work that follows professional practices. To do this, you will undertake a range of activities and roles associated with the conception, production, presentation creation and evaluation of performance work within the context of acting and performance.
During the course you will be assessed formatively (does not count towards the final grade) and summatively (counts towards the final grade) in different ways. These include: Written Work (Essays and Reflections and Installations) Performance Portfolios (which will be delivered in conditions that the module tutor will make clear, but will usually involve practical exams) Reflective submissions (such as online Canvas posts and annotated scripts) Presentations Performance Projects Online multimedia submission Process (which may involve the above, but also considers your practical and verbal contributions towards projects, as well as your overall code of practice and discipline) The reason we use these methods is because they represent, as close to possible, the kind of things that will be expected of you in formal professional environments and the activities that will grant you the ability to have a sustained career. These formats allow you to demonstrate work and self-presentation, written and spoken comprehension and communication, interpersonal skills, team-working and creative problem-solving.
