Assessment and entry considerations
Assessment: Controlled practical project, output testing or review, knowledge questions and individual demonstration; portfolio evidence centred on a commercial product photography portfolio.
Entry and recognition: Initial role-suitability, literacy and numeracy assessment; access to required practice resources and qualified supervision. Additional local entry conditions must be checked.
Practice boundaries: Use only properly licensed or original creative assets. Confirm client permissions, model releases and production safety. Design programmes do not confer architectural or structural design sign-off authority.
Credential status: Proposed BEMCON programme only. No registered award, framework level, credit value or external certification is assigned.
Duration basis: Original curriculum-planning estimate, not an official prescribed qualification duration. The approved qualification specification, entry assessment and mandatory placement requirements take precedence.
