STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
ADAM DIEN
“The instructors truly care about you and your success. I thought many times that I could teach myself, but having a mentor to guide you really makes the difference. They teach you from the ground up. I felt I was well prepared when I got my first job. I am very fortunate to have gone to this school.”
OLGA GRIGOREVA
“I came in with literally zero experience, and a month after graduation I got a job at a studio here in Vancouver. The best thing about InFocus is that it’s small and humble, so everyone up to the director of the school are very approachable and ready to help. They are really there to make sure you succeed, it’s great. Also, I got plenty of industry connections and insights through mentors that teach evening classes.”

I want to thank the entire staff at InFocus for working their magic. I am still to this day very thankful and highly recommend it!”
