Learn to turn ideas into visuals people remember. Master Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, build real brand identities, and finish with a portfolio strong enough to freelance or apply to agencies.
IBTC's Graphic Design program takes you from design fundamentals — color theory, typography, layout and composition — through to the tools professionals use daily: Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.
You'll design real deliverables along the way: a logo and brand identity, social media graphics, a poster, and a print layout — the exact kind of work clients and employers ask for, assembled into a portfolio by the end of the program.
