Master Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Figma while building a portfolio of real design projects. You'll also learn to put AI tools to work so you can design faster, sharpen your craft, and launch a modern career in graphic design.
This comprehensive program takes you from design fundamentals to a job-ready portfolio while teaching you how to put AI to work across your creative process. You'll master the core tools of the industry, including Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, and learn the principles of typography, color, layout, and composition that strong design is built on. From there, you'll move into interface design with Figma, creating wireframes, prototypes, and polished UI for websites and apps. Throughout the program, you'll apply these skills to real projects such as logos, posters, layouts, and digital products that you can show to employers and clients.
The program also prepares you for how design works today. You'll learn to use leading AI tools like ChatGPT, Adobe Firefly, and Midjourney alongside the AI features built into Creative Cloud to generate ideas, refine images, and speed up production. From there, you'll go a step further and use AI to build your own live design applications, from a custom portfolio website to brand studios and interactive design tools. By the end, you'll have the technical skills, the creative judgment, and the portfolio you need to launch a modern career in graphic design.

The Career Centers instructors are highly skilled communicators who really know their craft. They are wonderful about explaining and re-explaining when necessary and I never felt rushed or foolish for asking a question.
