    I too am looking at studying GD. I graduated from another degree program 4 years ago and cant get work.

    I always wanted to do something in the arts/creative field unlike my current qualification in teaching. I have been recently doing voluntary work experience in local printers. T-shirt printing, redrawing logos, banners and business cards etc using coral draw and really enjoy it. Can you recommend good courses that I could start out with to up skill in the hope of getting further work experience maybe in GD/advertising area ?

    I don't know what is considered a recognized qualification or a professional recommend route to take.
    Course pref. part time if any and not expensive.

    Hi 01mirelly,

    I could almost have written this post myself, just wondering how did you get on?
