This is a self-paced ONLINE course. This program is not part of our National Apprenticeship program. Design goes way beyond software and there is a lot of theory behind it. In this introductory course, you’ll learn the basics needed to create an amazing and real design. For this course, you won’t need any sort of equipment or specific software. “Why? Isn’t design just Photoshop?” you may ask, to which I answer “No, my dear reader! It is not!“. By understanding the process behind what real designers do and understand, you will also be able to see what makes good design. Why is that logo appealing? Why does that poster grab my attention? How is it that I can understand that ad, even though nothing is written on it? After participating in this course, you’ll finally understand more about design and gain the ability to see the world in a different way.
