We think The Chang School’s Lighting Design course will empower them.”
Those looking to take advantage of LightForm’s LIT 101 opportunity must submit a Letter of Intent along with their Resume to LightForm by December 30th, 2018. Letters and Resumes should be sent to [email protected]. A committee of five of the industry’s top design professionals will review applicants’ eligibility. Eligibility will be determined based on: student’s acceptance into and successful completion of the course, and letter of acknowledgement from the student’s employer before classes begin in January.
