For a long time I have been wanting to get into game design or development (maybe both), and Riot is a comapny I think I would really enjoy working for. However due to personal circumstances the only education I have is an AS (1st half of an A-Level) in Mathematics, I am assuming I would need more education than this to get a job in the game industry.

What education would you suggest getting? I have been looking at online courses form various places, one of which is Full Sail, is that place any good?

I would recommend looking at the linkedin group for riot game careers. Don't let any lax in educational background stop you if you think you're qualified for a position. Sometimes it helps depending on what you're applying for but I don't think a lack of higher education would ever prevent someone from being considered.

Also good luck :]

Having gone to a college specifically for game studies, I would not recommend anyone else to do so. You can find better resources online, most if not all of which will cost you nothing.

I'd be happy to have an in-depth conversation with you at some point if you'd like.

As an aside, I hope you misspelled education in the title on purpose.... ;)
