A. CERTIFICATE IN CREATIVE WRITING
The Certificate in Creative Writing is intended for participants who are interested in developing their creative talents in writing. Starting with a course in creative writing fundamentals, students can then explore the genres which most interest them: Poetry, Short Fiction/Novel, Drama, Screen Writing, Creative Non-Fiction, etc.
The programme is designed to encourage participants to self-reflexively assess their own writing by providing them with additional perspectives from which to view their writing. Participants will be exposed to the society of other writers through workshop sessions where they will share their work with their peers and give and receive constructive criticism designed to aid their development as writers.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CREATIVE WRITING AND LITERATURE?
English Literature is the study of what has already been written, whereas Creative Writing in English is the study and practice of new works from prose and poetry to screenwriting, to creative non-fiction, journalism and experimental writing.
WHY STUDY CREATIVE WRITING?
The course trains you to be a professional writer—to earn a living simply by writing.
Jobs directly related to creative writing include:
• Editorial assistant
• Newspaper journalist
• Publisher (Book Industry & Newspaper)
• Writer: biographer, novelist, dramatist, poet, essayist, etc.
• Lecturer/teacher
• Educational Writing
• Arts administrator
• Digital copywriter
• Lexicographer
• Magazine journalist, etc.
THOSE WHO WISH TO DO FURTHER STUDIES?
Regardless of your qualification, participants who successfully complete the course may qualify to pursue Masters of Arts degree in creative writing or Masters in Fine Arts in any university of their choice. Because writing is considered the last bit of schooling, writers with publishable manuscripts are not required to undertake undergraduate studies before enrolment in a graduate school for language related programmes. Famous universities such as Cambridge, Oxford, York and Birberck all do observe this policy. This means that even with a high school certificate, participants with writing promise who successfully complete the course may proceed straight to a masters programme. NO NEED FOR A FOUR-YEAR BARCHELORS DEGREE!!!!!!!!

Before we award the certificate, the participant is expected to complete a thesis and a dissertation. The thesis—a 20 page manuscript could be one long work in prose, a collection of short stories, poetry, drama, creative non-fiction or a combination of works in various genres.
