FAQs
Our Spotlighting Getting Started programme helps start-ups to put what they have learnt during Getting Started Online, a one-week introduction to business course, into action. Through practical assignments, participants learn how to photograph their work, speak live to camera and prepare their pieces for our annual Spotlighting Getting Started exhibition.

Our events are held both in person at the Goldsmiths’ Centre and online, allowing our community across the UK to connect, share ideas, and learn from industry experts. To encourage open, honest discussion and protect confidentiality, we do not routinely record or broadcast these sessions - unless they are being used specifically for teaching purposes. We regularly revisit popular topics, so there will be future opportunities to engage with them.
We are committed to making our training programmes and events as inclusive and accessible as possible. If you have any access requirements, please inform us as early as possible so we can make the necessary arrangements. While we will do our best to accommodate your needs, advance notice is essential to ensure we can provide appropriate support.
