Courses

For emerging photographers, all students first undertake the Level 1 core course in photography. Our core courses are 12 week seminars taught in multiple languages, including English, French, Spanish, Arabic, Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian, and Russian. After completing Level 1, students can be invited to progress to Level 2 and Level 3.

For more established photographers, VII Academy offers advanced visual education. This includes the Sarajevo Seminar for Documentary and Narrative Practice, the Mentor Program, and the Fellows Program. There are also a range of Partner programs offering special opportunities.

All of our courses and programs are provided free of tuition to selected applicants.
