The Advanced Vocational Training Module in Graphic Design for Printing offers both creative and technical tools to address graphic design and communication projects on printed media.

It will involve working on Design and Visual Communication projects in the fields of creativity, publishing, graphic identity and computer graphics.

The focus will be on creating clear concepts, mastering the use of typeface design and employing various material and printed-reproduction resources to create communication pieces that are both singular and functional.

Students will learn how to design, organise and carry out the different phases of a graphic project, its conceptualisation, subsequent tracking and quality control in the graphics industry in order to obtain a product that delivers on the initial communication objectives.
