Susan Samuels - Bristol, UK
I thought I fully understood everything about design a brand identity, logo and corporate stationery, but I was wrong. There are so many things to consider and this course provided me with everything I needed to know. I feel so confident now and my employer is also happy with the results.
Tobias Meyer - Dusseldorf, Germany
This Brand and Corporate ID Design specilaist course has helped me a lot. This was a weak area for me as a digital designer. I build websites and I am ofetn asked to design brand identity logos which was not a strong point for me. With the amazing help from my course tutor I now can come up with creative designs for my clients.
