Design Program
The Information Design Program allows you to
prepare for a career as an information designer. It is designed
to provide you with foundation training in the core information
design disciplines of writing, graphic design and human factors
design. No other institution offers this broad skill coverage
in one program!
Upon completion of the program, participants
will be able to employ systematic processes and newly acquired
knowledge to increase the usability and performance of their
information products, interaction designs, user interfaces,
web products, and training systems.
This innovative program is flexibly packaged
to meet the needs of today's life-long learner. For example,
if you want to complete the program quickly, you can take
several classes at the same time. If you want to take your
time, you can take the courses part-time, at your own pace,
over 18 months. You may choose to create your own course schedule.
Or you may choose to follow the suggested course
schedules for the five month accelerated program or the
twelve month program.
In addition, there is no initial upfront outlay of cash! If
you decide to sign up for the program, you will be provided
with a discount code. You enter the code each time you register
for a course. You will receive a 10% discount on each course
at the time of registration and you only pay for one course
at a time! This means that you can work your way towards the
Information Design Certificate one course at a time. And,
should a major life event (e.g. pregnancy, operation, etc)
prevent you from completing your education, you still have
the certification associated with each course you've taken!
Nothing is wasted.
Upon successful completion of this program,
you will receive an Information Design Certificate
at no charge from one of our participating university affiliates.
