Graphic Communications

The Graphic Communications program trains you for entry into this creative, rapidly evolving industry. GrafCom focuses on digital print and promotional media and provides a broad overview of graphic communications processes, including:

• graphic design and typography
• creative planning, page layouts and document composition
• computer graphics, illustrations and image manipulation
• digital pre-press and printing production theories
• computer systems management and introductory web design

Students gain practical, hands-on experience with industry-standard software and equipment while completing a broad range of practical projects. The graphics industry is constantly evolving, thus the curriculum is constantly being reviewed by our industry advisory board to reflect current technologies and trends.

Assignments are relevant to current business applications, and a two-week work experience placement puts eligible students' training to work in Edmonton's graphic design, promotions and printing industry.

The program has an excellent reputation in the Edmonton business community and graduate's skills can be transportable across Canada.

The Graphic Communications program is a very quick-paced "Career-in-a-Year" certificate program that gets students engaged, trained and fast tracked to employment.
