  Well organised. Revisiting the preparing files for web and print part a second time really helped it click. Loved the logo design brief exercises — great for building a portfolio.

  Clear structure from print and packaging design through to colour theory. I'd like a few more practice tasks, but overall very useful. My social media graphics look far more professional after the layout lessons.

  I joined to get better at using design tools efficiently. The practical exercises on typography and layout were exactly what I needed. The colour theory section was simple, visual and immediately useful.
