Program Details

Advanced Communication Design School: North Island College (Comox Valley Campus) Faculty: Interactive Media Degree: Diploma Field of Study: Digital Communication and Media/Multimedia Description: The advanced diploma program builds on either the Web Development diploma or the Communication Design diploma. The first two years follow the highlights outlined in those programs. During the third year, students complete their training with the remaining Interactive Media courses. For example, students who have achieved the Web Development diploma learn the fundamentals of communication design, while students who have finished the Communication Design diploma learn the skills of web development. In this way, all graduates of the Advanced Communication Design diploma possess a comprehensive knowledge of interactive media. Upon completion, graduates are eligible for membership with the Society of Graphic Designers of Canada, the professional body for communication design. With a strong combination of design and programming abilities, graduates can adapt rapidly to the changing industry and are qualified to manage a high level of client communication needs—whether in print, online or both.
