Dentist pass their licensing exams this way. It would be insane to license a dentist just on the strenght of a written exam.</div><div> </div><div>On the other hand, I don't intend to be a doctor of "digital design, modeling and animation". I just like the modeling part. So maybe this is equivalent to a bachelors degree. That lower level certificate could probably be obtained by submitting portfolios and taking a written exam. It may even include an online practicum (via Skype).</div></div></body></html>
