Canva Pro + AI Tools Workshop
In today's digital age, strong design skills are essential for effective visual communication. Recognizing the growing need for individuals to create compelling graphics effortlessly, organized a three-day Canva Pro + AI Tools workshop aimed at equipping participants with basic to intermediate Canva skills. The workshop was designed to help attendees master Canva's features and AI-powered tools, enabling them to create professional-grade designs with ease. The primary objectives of this workshop were to introduce participants to Canva's interface and functionalities, explore text, color, and video design principles, provide hands-on experience with presentations and AI-powered design tools, equip participants with time-saving tips and tricks for better design efficiency, and inspire creativity and confidence in visual content creation.
The workshop was organized for three days, featuring interactive lessons, hands-on exercises, and real-time design challenges. With two expert trainers leading the sessions, we welcomed 34 enthusiastic participants, all eager to enhance their design skills and unlock their creative potential.
The event commenced on 10th March with an inauguration ceremony that set a positive tone for the three days.
