    When I first started learning graphic design I was highly focused on learning Photoshop and Illustrator, and never took the time to really dive into InDesign. However, One thing I would do differently if I started my graphic design journey over is to learn InDesign early. It is a powerhouse tool in creating beautiful documents for print and for web. It has been often the case that InDesign is my final step before sending my work of to the printers or to the web. For this reason, whether you’re a designer or not, Learning InDesign is an invaluable asset that will set you apart in almost any industry.

    This class is for everyone who wants to create polished work that will stand out in the world. InDesign is the final step before you work goes out into the world, and in the world of design the finishing touches make all the difference!
