Graphic Design Basics for Non-Designers

Today, with affordable DIY layout and design software plentiful — and with the growing prevalence of digital marketing, social posts, blogs and Facebook ads — people without formal training are taking on more design tasks than ever.

But having a computer with desktop publishing abilities doesn’t make you a designer. If you find yourself in a position of designing for your organization, do yourself a favor and get familiar with the fundamentals of good design.

This course provides you with a working knowledge of practical design strategies, techniques and tips that will go a long way to making anything you create visually appealing and more likely to achieve results.

Course Outcomes

  • Produce visually appealing flyers, brochures, social posts, ads and more
  • Become familiar with the basics of good content design
  • Use graphic elements to attract attention without detracting from the message
  • Ensure all elements of your design are in harmony
  • Create your own eye-catching designs with the free version of Canva
