In today’s show, we were joined by Tammy Job - HR Officer at the Spier Arts Academy. They have launched their annual Spier Arts Academy’s recruitment campaign and are offering 25 bursaries for the employment-based training in professional mosaic. The employment-based training provides apprentices with the opportunity to work on real-world projects, collaborate with specially chosen artist and learn professional art practices by association - learning to scale, quantify and systematically manufacture large mosaic pieces over a period of time. The Academy welcomes school leavers who are eager to start their creative careers, as well as more experienced candidates with a creative background wanting to broaden their artistic skillset. Dedicated students with an avid interest in art and a commitment to learn are encouraged to apply at the Academy.
