Hello,
I'm a total newbie so be please be gentle with me!
I've been wanting to start a career in Graphic Design for a while but have no idea which courses are the best to take.
I already have a degree (and student debt) in another area so would like to avoid doing a degree if possible. Can anyone advise which qualifications are expected for entry level jobs into the industry and any recommendations for the best course providers?
I've been studying at home using Lynda and Udemy but feel I'd like to get some more hands on experience to build my confidence. I don't mind studying from home or visiting a centre just would like a tutor to discuss things with etc.
I have been tempted by the course run by Shillington. It's a bit pricey, looks really appealing but I'm concerned it only provides me with a portfolio and not a formal qualification. Does anyone have experience of doing this course or employing someone who has and if so what are your thoughts?
Thank you in advance, I'm excited to see what your thoughts are........
