This program is offered at both our El Reno and Chickasha campuses.
The Graphic Design program at CV Tech prepares students to enter the graphic design industry in an entry level graphic design position; a print shop, sublimation studio, etc. Students will learn Adobe design software (InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop) and a myriad of other support software to create and edit graphics, and create print documents using graphic design principles that include composition, color, layout, illustration, typography, and more. Students learn the use of production equipment, such as the (long roll printer, sublimation tools, making banners, etc.) file management, creativity, and sketching.
