Core offering

The One School Goa delivers in-person creative-arts education through modular 6-month capsule programs and a 10-month Content Creation Program covering photography, filmmaking, and graphic design. Its Integrated Foundation Program (P1) is the compulsory starting point, after which students pursue specialization in Photography Pro (P2), Film Making Pro (P3), or Graphic Design Advanced (P4), with instruction delivered primarily on the Goa campus. The offering bundles hands-on studio and location shoots, post-production training, and business-of-creative-arts modules into tuition-based diploma tracks.

Product overview

The One School Goa offers a modular creative education platform structured around 6-month capsule programs in photography, filmmaking, and graphic design. The portfolio includes the Content Creation Program (a 10-month 2-part program combining photography, videography, and design), the Integrated Foundation Program (P1) as a compulsory 6-month entry point covering all three disciplines, and three specialized 6-month advanced programs: Photography Pro (P2), Film Making Pro (P3), and Graphic Design Advanced (P4). Students can build their own program by combining capsules, with the Integrated Foundation as the prerequisite.
