After the course, students tend to go to university, but you could go straight into the industry. Often students want to do an apprenticeship, at the time of writing there arent many available in media. On the whole, university tends to offer a more reliable route into the industry, so we tend to recommend this, but the main thing to aim for is work experience, which Long Road will support you with.
