The Screen Academy Scotland is a collaboration between Napier University and Edinburgh College of Art. It opened in August 2006 and is based in Edinburgh, Scotland. Both Napier and ECA already had established film making courses. The Academy offers practical, project-based, postgraduate courses.
Sir Sean Connery and Dame Judi Dench are patrons of the Academy.
The Academy is one of six centres of excellence recognised by Skillset, the Sector Skills Council for the Audio Visual Industries. See also Scottish Screen, the national body for film and television in Scotland.
