Level 2 Diploma Digital Technologies (Media Pathway)

The Digital Technologies (Media Pathway) Level 2 Diploma is designed for learners who want to develop their creative media and IT skills further, with a clear focus on how the media industry operates. It is suitable for those who already have some basic digital or creative experience and are looking to build confidence, technical ability and industry awareness. 

Throughout the course, learners explore a range of creative media skills, including web design, video production, sound and radio production, photography and digital publishing. Learning is based around practical projects that introduce advertising techniques, stop‑motion animation and the creation of media content for different audiences. Learners also develop an understanding of how media products are planned, produced and targeted within the industry. 

Alongside practical media work, learners gain insight into media audiences and how creative content is shaped to meet different needs and purposes. Maths and English skills are supported in relevant contexts to help learners develop the wider skills needed for progression. 

By the end of the course, learners will have strengthened their creative and technical abilities and be prepared to progress to further study in digital media, creative technologies or related pathways.
