Registration is open for GDC Masterclass at GDC 2022 in March
New for 2022, the GDC Masterclass program will be happening in-person at GDC.
Who's ready to learn? Registration is open for the GDC Masterclass Spring 2022 program, which is taking place in-person at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. This round of courses is poised to help you and your team succeed in critical industry fields—like Agile leadership and microservice architecture in game design.
The GDC Masterclass program comprises small-group workshops that deliver in-depth training around some of the most important work and challenges facing game developers today. These live courses go beyond high-level theory into real world application, helping attendees acquire practical experience that can be applied immediately on return to the studio. Instructors will teach, guide, and work directly with you on short assignments that help build crucial skills to support your work in the studio or your next job hunt.
GDC 2022 will take place from March 21 to March 25 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco, California. All Masterclass courses will take place on the Monday or Tuesday of the event from 9:30am to 6:30pm. GDC Masterclass courses can be purchased as an add-on with any pass type for an additional fee.
Health and safety measures remain paramount and we’re committed to following city and Moscone Center guidelines to deliver an exceptional experience. Be sure to bookmark our Health and Safety page for the latest updates.
