Who is this course for?
We’ve had hundreds of students take this course and they all come from different backgrounds. This is what a few of our students said before taking the course:
- I want to be a designer.
I’m entirely new to the design world. I’ve always been curious about it and want to make the leap into becoming a designer. I just don’t know where to start!
- I want to improve my design process.
I’m new to freelance. I want to sharpen my design process, get a better handle on my workflow and client communication skills!
- I want to start a business.
I’ve got a rad business idea. I consider myself pretty creative and have a strong idea of how I want the brand to look. I want to take a stab at branding it myself, but I have no design experience!
- I'm a recent grad.
I just graduated design school. I've got design skills, but how do I turn that into a career?
- I'm an employee.
I currently have a full-time job that sometimes includes graphic design asks. I want to learn how to design real world assets quickly for my team.
- I’m fun-employed.
I was laid off from a job in a field that I don't think I even want to be in. I really want to explore this world to see if I should pursue it.
A Graphic Design Curriculum For the Practical Designer
Section 1
Design Tools
Sure, you can youtube tutorials OR you can follow a super fun step-by-step curriculum with actual on-the-job deliverables, not just some “cool effect”.
“I now feel like I can create a cohesive brand and do it all much quicker than I could through just self-teaching.” - Carlota
Section 2
Design Process
How do you start when you have too many ideas? How do you sell your designs? We’ll teach you the ilovecreatives Studio design process so you can apply this to any project of any scale.
“I didn’t have a mentor at my job to teach me how professionals approach design with a strategic mindset.” - Dani
Section 3
Portfolio
You must have a portfolio. Full stop. Your resume, college degree, and even glowing reference doesn’t matter if you don’t have a portfolio. Here you’ll get 1on1 feedback and we’ll workshop with you until it’s done!
“I feel good calling myself a graphic designer. And, I already have more freelance work because of my portfolio!” - Jake
Section 4
Design Career
We will cover all phases: from interning to getting a job, to asking for a raise, to freelancing or starting an agency. You’ll have an actual path and a ton of resources (e.g. contracts, notion templates, email templates, and project rate and estimator spreadsheets).
“I felt like I earned another degree after taking this course. They are so transparent about everything!” - Katie
51% of students want to Freelance or start an Agency, 42 % of students want a Full-Time Job (or a raise), 7% of students are taking this course to give better feedback (employers, marketing, or founders)

Resources Library
A supplemental library of resources and guides that keeps growing.
I truly believe in investing in your people, especially when there are great resources like ilovecreatives. In a small organization, there isn’t always the opportunity to learn from others so ilovecreatives gave our design employees a chance to network with other likeminded professionals, learn from the class, and also be inspired. There was a noticeable improvement in the quality and thoughtfulness of her work! Not only with design, but with presentation. Everyone on the team agrees!
The graphic design course that ilovecreatives has built serves not only as a precursor training for soon-to-be designers, but also as a refresher to bring creative teams closer. We look at this course now as couples therapy for creative directors and their designers — a fun, but educational course to get you both communicating in a healthier way ?
Bonus Workshops
Live Workshops are bonus sessions offered exclusively to students. Led by Mindy and Sarah featuring alumni, course graduates, and guest experts, these workshops dive deeper into creative tools, industry insights, and career-building topics.
