In 2014, John Hughes and Shish Aikat co-founded The John Hughes Institute (JHI), in order to provide bespoke solutions in digital media education. We offer a wide range of online and hybrid learning opportunities, including micro-credentials, certificate and diploma programs, and specialized courses covering topics from animation and visual effects to advanced virtual production techniques.
Our offerings are designed to complement and enhance the programs of colleges and universities, with tailored support for extension, continuing education, and undergraduate or graduate departments.
Through JHI Pathways, we also guide students in navigating their college and graduate school options, providing personalized educational consulting.
Our faculty brings together a global team of industry veterans-artists, technologists, and educators-who provide the best practices in the art + science of entertainment.
