As we live in a more globalized world, the market related to new technologies is growing more and more. Among the different segments, the one related to animation is one of the ones that has the most potential. Some calculations suggest that in 2022, the 3D animation market, for example, will move more than US $20 billion globally.
Due to this scenario, more and more offers are emerging to study this type of animation. In fact, SENA offers several courses that any Colombian can apply for. Some are virtual; others in person.
According to the Sofía Plus portal, where you can find all SENA offers, the entity is offering several courses and technical careers related to that area.
There are, for example, from “Digital Apprentice” courses, which last only 40 hours, to digital animation technologists of almost 4 thousand hours, which aim for the student to learn to build stories in a digital environment and to create characters and special effects. There are also other technologists in 3D animation and courses focused on “digital entrepreneurship.”
