There are several ways to find and register for a class here at BAVC.

1. Browse the full class catalog > This will show you all the classes in our catalog. You can then click through to see if and when the next class is scheduled. If there are no scheduled classes, you can check in with our senior training advisor and ask for a custom class, or check on future availability.
2. Browse scheduled classes > (shows only classes currently on our schedule. We try to schedule 4 months in advance).
3. Browse scheduled classes on our calendar > Again, this will show you only scheduled classes on our calendar. Click on the class name to register.

Bring a layer.
A working post-production facility, BAVC's suites and labs are kept at a relatively low temperature to protect our electronic equipment. The climate is ideal for machines, but a little on the cool side for humans, so we recommend dressing warmly for class.

Special Needs?
Students with disabilities are encouraged to contact our This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it , to ensure that any proposed training needs may be accommodated.

The Neighborhood
Classes are taught at the BAVC facility (2727 Mariposa St., 2nd floor), unless otherwise specified in the class description.

Street parking can be difficult in this neighborhood during the week, so, we recommend public transportation, or, if you drive, be prepared to spend a few extra minutes finding a spot. Weekends and evenings are a breeze.


PLEASE NOTE: Classes are subject to change without notice. For the latest policy on cancellations, refunds, and enrollments, please check out our cancellation page.
