CHATSWORTH MEDI@RT ACADEMY
Diploma in Communication Design
Someone once said, 'If you're going to do something, do something which makes you happy.' So are you sure you are doing what really makes you happy? You secretly are a passionate designer at heart; one who has always had a keen eye for aesthetics. We know how it must feel, taking up every course but design, the one thing you truly live for. Let us, help you break free from your shell.
You will undergo comprehensive training in using computer graphic software and taught the principles of design in this course. You will also be taught how to conceptualize development for design applications such as editorial and packaging. You will be exposed to the practical know-hows of the industry, as well as the common "DOs" & "DON'Ts" practiced. In this course, project-based training will be key.
Interactions and hands-on workshops, consultations and practical assignments as well as presentations and critiques are provided to better aid you in your understanding of the topics being covered, and to better your skills after graduating from this course.
This purely-design course is recommended for those who aspire to become full-pledged designers.
