Module Overview

The Graphic Design Training Package has three modules:

  1. Digital Images – including an introduction to graphic design and Adobe Photoshop
  2. Vector Graphics – including an Introduction to Adobe Illustrator and how it can be used with Photoshop
  3. Document Design – with an introduction to using Adobe InDesign and bringing everything you’ve learned in previous modules together to produce some print-ready documents

Practical activities

Each module includes practical activities, where you can apply what you have learned in a short exercise.

 

You’ll post your completed activities to the ‘Practicals’ forum for each module – this is where your tutor can provide feedback and answer your questions.


Assessments

The course includes three Projects, that bring everything you have learned together into a real-world scenario. These projects can be useful additions to your portfolio:

  • Project 1: Poster Design
  • Project 2: Logo Design
  • Project 3: Magazine Cover and DPS

You’ll upload each project to its assessment page, where your tutor can view it and provide feedback and a grade.


Completing the course

To complete the course, you’ll need to achieve a ‘complete’ grade for all three assessments. Your tutor will provide detailed feedback and support to help you complete each project.
