"If it wasn't for the Instructors’ one-on-one guidance and support from PAVI staff I wouldn't be where I am today; successfully employed as a boom operator for television & film. I’m with the ACFC Union of BC and have applied for IASTE. During my tenure at PAVI, I found the Administration's doors were always open, and the Instructors gave students what they needed in practical, straightforward terms. If I had one gem to pass on to future students it would be this: "The only stupid question is the one never asked."..... ...... |

If you’re a sponge for knowledge, PAVI will give you all you can handle and more.
