Student Reviews
I enjoyed this course. To be able to see how a professional designer works day to day is very valuable but I was hoping there would be a little more focus on the logo design process itself. - Tyler Trapp
So far so good. Helped me realize where I was lapsing,especially in building good rapport with the client by keeping a good communication line. Great stuff!!! - Beltarzar Nicholas
I think this class offers a lot of good info for someone that has never had a business before by showing the steps necessary to complete a project, as well as, how to work with the client and providing what the client needs. - Lori Mayberry
