Course Overview

ACA's Full-Time course has been meticulously designed and conceived with each actor's most extensive learning outcomes and professional results as the prime consideration. We deliver a program of exceptional standing and one that many industry leaders believe sets a new standard in what is possible in acting training.

THREE DISTINCT ELEMENTS SET THIS COURSE APART:

• The Philosophy: ACA's Full-Time Course embraces your gifts and honours your personal and artistic journey throughout your training. This is an adult environment operating from a place of mutual collaboration, respect and support. Our paradigm for learning is: high challenge matched with high support produces high performance.

• The Structure: We have structured a unique and flexible schedule that works for you. Up top two days during the week are spent off campus and used to embrace three essential elements:
  1) Time for reflection and digestion
  2) Time for quality research and preparation
  3) Time to work, to live
  There are three days of classes per week from first year, then three and a half days from the middle of second year. The extra half-day of classes are focused on key areas that directly reflect the upcoming demands of the Industry. By maintaining a balanced and healthy life, you can avoid stresses and overload that can accompany five days a week study and therefore fully embrace the quality training offered. This unique structure also serves to accelerate and deepen your learning.
