When looking into the Software Certificate courses offered at NWTC, students are required to take 4 classes or a total of 12 credit hours, or 3 credits per class. The courses are as follows: Illustrator Fundamentals, Photoshop Fundamentals, Photography-Digital, and Photoshop Advanced. Which essentially from my understanding is the core basis of the Adobe Creative Suite.
Therefore, considering the courses I have taken at LTC to complete my Web and Graphic design degree – the certificate I have selected based of primitive interest is one I have already acquired. Therefore, I should expand my horizons elsewhere.
It is interesting, or rather curious to note, that LTC no longer offers their Web and Graphic Design Associates Degree Program and has reinvented their wheel a bit to incorporate a Design and Graphic Software Certificate and a Design and Graphic Technology Associates.
