During the last 15 years Hyper Island has been designing learning experiences for students and industry. Starting out in what used to be an old prison in the small naval town Karlskrona we now have offices in Stockholm, London, Manchester and New York and are present in almost every corner of the world – from Amsterdam and San Francisco to Tokyo and Berlin.

During this time digital has gone from being another channel for communication to an integrated fibre of the fabric that surrounds us. Hyper Island has been at the forefront of that journey, by working with industry leading pioneers. We have recognized that in this fast changing landscape people will need a different type of education where they can pick up a more dynamic, richer skill set that goes beyond the traditional craft. So, after years of acquiring experience and knowhow, always in close collaboration with the best agencies around the world, we launched the first Hyper Island Master Class in August 2008.

Hyper Island offers the Master Class out of our offices in the UK, USA and Sweden where we also run the following long-term educational programs: Digital Media, eCcommerce Manager, Interactive Art Director, Mobile Applications, and Motion Graphics.
