Review about: Shaw Academy
Diploma in Illustrator; Professional Diploma in Graphic Design; Professional Diploma in Web Design
Genuinely, Shaw Academy is great.
I am a creative person, have an MSc in Int'l Mgmt & BA Hons in Politics & Diplomacy, but have always wished I studied Graphic Design.
While working in a Marketing Department, I began using tools like Canva to make brochures and advertisements, so it sparked an interest in Graphic Design with Illustrator. But problem! I didn't know how to even open up Illustrator and I don't have the time to take a four year course...
I did some googling and looked into various online courses in Graphic Design, but I eventually settled on Shaw Academy because you can essentially do a course for 40 quid. I had full intentions of not learning much and cancelling the subscription without having to pay (being honest here guys....) but I was actually so surprised: I learned SO MUCH in the first course of Illustrator.
It was so fun and easy, I was able to make my own schedule, and it was extremely practical, so I didn't feel like it was pandering to me. I enjoyed it so much that after completing the Illustrator course, I wanted to expand my knowledge in other areas, so I've begun the PD in Graphic Design and PD in Web Design.
Again, it is all on my own schedule and I have already learned so much - being two lessons in.
TLDR: If you're interested in something that you don't have the time or capital to study a four year course - take a Shaw Academy course. They are professional, quick, practical and fun. Highly would recommend to everyone.
Shaw Academy are being widely accused of deceptive and fraudulent behaviour with regard to unauthorized taking of payments for cancelled accounts. It is recommended to cancel your bank card if they have your details.
