A practical skill that leads straight to DTP and print design jobs in the local market.
Design visiting cards, flex banners, brochures, invitations and logos in CorelDRAW — the program most print shops and flex printers in Punjab run on. Taught hands-on at techcadd Computer Institute Jalandhar, with every file prepared to print correctly.
techcadd Computer Institute's CorelDRAW course in Jalandhar is a six-week, print-focused program for anyone who wants to design the everyday jobs that keep printers busy — visiting cards, bill books, letterheads, flex banners, shop boards and wedding cards.
You start with the drawing tools, shapes, curves and nodes, then learn text, typography, colour and fills. From week four the course is job work: cards, letterheads and brochures, then flex banners and signage at real sizes, and finally print preparation — CMYK, bleed, resolution, fonts and sending files that the printer can use without calling you back.
You finish with a set of print-ready files you designed yourself, a certificate, and the skills local print shops, flex printers and DTP counters look for when they hire.
Designed to be printedNo design background is needed. If you can use a computer, you can learn CorelDRAW — the course moves from basic shapes to real print jobs step by step.
