Types of partnership
NEW COURSES
Recording of new courses with relevant information on favorite topics in the CG industry. It can be both courses for beginners and advanced training courses divided into levels from beginner to pro.
MENTORSHIP
Once every 3 months, ArtCraft holds graduation events for all school courses, gathering 200-300 people. We are always looking for mentors who could set aside several hours for a collective review and motivational speech for future CG specialists.
WORKSHOPS & WEBINARS
We conduct a large number of paid workshops and webinars on various topics, which constitute a part of our education funnel. This helps students improve their knowledge of specific topics for enrollment to the next course levels. It is also useful for working professionals who are constantly progressing and looking for new tools and styles.
ADVISORY BOARD
In the future, we plan to gather the Advisory Board with our most active colleagues to form new educational programs and to assist in developing our school and the industry as a whole. We plan to take an active part in the development of software for artists, and to share our observations and recommendations with leading developers.
PERSONAL COACHING
Individual counseling for students on portfolio improvement, correction of style, or teaching new software and other CG fields.

We prepared examples of our basic course with English subtitles and one video with homework review, so you gain better understanding of how the online-learning format works.
P.S. The homework video is without subtitles but we're working on it.

firstelearn.com — the most powerful system for your education in CG
MICRO-LEARNING
The entire course is built on small videos which are unlocked depending on the conditions set (once a week, or immediately after watching the previous segment) all videos are available via student's personal account.
They receive support from our managers, thus ensuring an individual approach to learning.

ALL IN ONE PLACE
Lessons, feedback, and online meetings are held in a single virtual workspace with a constantly adapting interface. We're constantly impoving it.
Feedback on possible improvements and solutions from our teachers is vital in making a truly convenient and functional training tool.

USER-FRIENDLY
Right now we're translating support team messages into several languages so everyone will understand the essence of the feedback. All the videos will have embedded subtitles, which we also plan to separately translate. Starting from version 3.0, there will be a mobile application in development and students will be able to view all the content and receive reminders, recommendations, and challenges.
One week on the platform for students
1
CLASSES
Depending on the schedule and format of the course, the student gets access to the material of each week and homework assignment.
2
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT
After viewing the lesson, the student is given the assignment. The assignment must be completed within next few days, before the next lesson or a review session.
3
PERSONAL SUPPORT
All technical issues and lesson-related questions should be directed to our support department/team. Our support team will help to determine which version of Photoshop is best to purchase, how to set up a tablet, and how to complete the assignment correctly. In some cases, a member of support will contact a teacher directly to solve any individual issues.
4
ONLINE-MEETING
An online group meeting is usually set up at the end of the week. A teacher examines the homework assignments of each student and makes recommendations for their improvements. These meetings are an important part of the learning process as it helps students to look at other's mistakes and progress and get a real-time connection with a teacher.
Funnel of learning
For 3 years, we have developed a perfect model of student progress. The "funnel of learning" proved to be the best without deception and fine print in the contract.
KNOW-HOW
Our basic courses serve as a foundation for further study. Our main goal is to help a person get the necessary knowledge for evolvement in the shortest time possible. Also provide them with some basic experience on a new subject, even if they ultimately decide to continue developing their skill in some other field
WORKSHOPS
Workshops, both paid and free, serve to promote a person on a journey map and maintain their interest. Each workshop is focused on a specific area and helps advance in the best direction.
Styling, 3D graphics, rendering, effects, advanced work level with perspective, form, and much more.
