Do you have an eye for art? Do you want to design projects from start to finish? Do you want to learn how graphic design history affects current design issues?

If your answer to any of these questions is yes, then Clayton State Continuing and Professional Education’s Adobe Graphic Designer courses are perfect for you! Luckily, there are still spots open for the upcoming Adobe Graphic Designer II session, starting on April 15th.

Here are three more reasons why you’ll love our Adobe Graphic Designer courses:

1) You’ll get the chance to grow your design skills and show off your creativity.

Our graphic design courses are structured around developing necessary skills while allowing you to play to your strengths. As a student, you’ll be presented with a series of design problems and you’ll have the freedom to develop an independent and creative solution to those problems.

2) You’ll develop the skills necessary to open up exciting new job opportunities.

Information and technology skills are in constant demand, which is why CaPE creates courses based on those skills. Good graphic design abilities are no exception. In our increasingly virtual world, having an expansive portfolio to impress potential employers can help you achieve your graphic design dreams.

Graphic designers can work in almost any industry that uses visuals. Animators, user experience designers, production artists, art directors, brand designers, and multimedia designers are all graphic designers. If you see a logo, label, or poster while you’re walking down the street, that exists because of a graphic designer.

3) You’ll learn how to combine text and images in visually engaging ways.

Knowing how to combine text and images can be helpful in any aspect of your life. If you’re a small business owner who can’t afford a graphic designer, having the skills to make your own posters and advertisements can help you expand your business’ reach.

In addition, graphic design can help you run an eye-catching social media, create posters and flyers for your organizations, and create your art. Just like communication, graphic design is an extremely transferable skill.

4) You’ll learn from an instructor with years of experience and passion for design.

With your instructor and your peers, you’ll develop your collaboration skills, which are critical for graphic design. As a designer, you’ll often be hired to create someone else’s vision, which requires clear communication and an understanding of how to achieve a specific goal.
