Canva, known as the “design tool for non-designers,” has become the go-to platform for anyone looking to create visual content without complex and costly design software.

This interactive workshop will guide you through the tools and functions needed to create both digital marketing content and designs for print.

  • How to use Canva templates and how to create your own
  • How to use images, fonts, video and colours to achieve a consistent visual identity

    Why attend?
