Real live campus

We’re based on Production Park in Wakefield in Yorkshire. Our campus is a unique environment where some of the world’s biggest productions are put together. You’ll become part of the community of studios, technology and talent that make up Production Park. It’s a place where the industry does its thing, day-in-day-out. 

So, you’ll learn from the people who’ve done it for real, get to use the latest kit and technology and access job opportunities that could take you all over the world. 

You’ll learn what the live industry does, where the live industry does it. 

What our students say

Being based in the heart of industry meant I was introduced to professionals and work opportunities alongside my teaching. The real stand out experiences I had at the Academy of Live Technology were those when I worked alongside professionals and industry on Production Park. It was an invaluable experience as a student to be part of an established organisation, putting theory into practice and learning on the job.
