Do you die a little bit inside every single time you see an ugly graphic posted on social media? Do you go out of your way to whip out the “graphic design is my passion” meme when you come across a Comic Sans-riddled post in your feed?

If you answered yes to these questions, maybe graphic design *is* your passion (or perhaps something that could be your passion), and you just have no idea how to harness it. Think about it, how else would you recognize what “bad” design is if you don’t have an understanding of what constitutes “good” design?

Unleash your inner creative and embark on an intensive graphic design training for the price of your choosing with this unique deal. The Complete Learn to Design Bundle is comprised of 10 online courses with a collective value of $1,466, but it can all be yours for next to nothing. (This is a “pay what you want” deal — more on that later, though.)

Here’s a sneak peek of what’s included in the bundle:

Learn Photoshop From an Expert Designer

Gain proficiency in the world’s leading photo editor with the help of a professional. This course will run you through the basics of the program and get you to grips with all its nuts and bolts. Once you learn how it works, you’ll dive right into hands-on exercises where you can immediately apply the skills you’ve acquired.

Graphic Design Master Class

Learn how to create a solid brand package that stands out with this expert-led course. It covers everything from color theory and composition to branding and layout. You’ll also get familiar with top design tools, including Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, so you can create beautiful business cards, posters, and more.

Typography From A to Z

If the extent of your typography skills begins and ends with scribbling your crush’s name on your middle school notebook, this typography-intensive course will fill you in on the philosophy behind typography and the reason why it is vital in design projects. You’ll walk away with a theoretical and literal understanding of typography and how it is utilized in a wide range of platforms.

Become a Professional Graphic Designer

Now if you want to make designing either a side hustle or full-time gig, this course will teach you how to turn your interest into a full-blown profession. Aside from exploring design techniques on software like Photoshop and Dreamweaver, you’ll also gain insight into the current graphic design industry and receive tips on how to forge a career path as a designer.

That’s just four of the 10 courses included in the bundle, which covers everything from Adobe Illustrator to creating magazines with InDesign to Canva to logo design. It’s more than 65 hours of total instruction, and you can pick and choose which courses to tackle first based on your interests.

We’ve featured “Pay What You Want” style deals here before, but in case you’re unfamiliar, here’s how this deal works. Name your price, and you’ll automatically gain access to a handful of courses. If you end up beating the average price, you’ll get to take home the entire bundle. As a bonus, your name will automatically be entered into an iPhone XS Max and AirPods giveaway when you beat the leader’s price. So go forth and may your bid be in your favor.
