Think Tank Training Centre — Attraction in North Vancouver

As a Think Tank student who has taken both the online and on-campus programs, I can say that my journey at TT was completely worth it. I had the opportunity to learn, practice, and improve my skills to create better 3D environments for games, and have much better pieces for my portfolio.

I even landed my first job in the games industry through my mentor’s recommendation.

It’s a demanding program, so staying committed, communicative, and willing to put in the hours makes a huge difference. What I loved most was the sense of community, everyone, from staff to classmates, was supportive and kind. Besides learning industry workflows, I also built genuine relationships that continue to...
