The Adobe Illustrator Fast Track Gold Course is an intensive eight-day programme that offers a complete learning journey from beginner to advanced level. Combining all three stages of Illustrator training, this course provides a deep understanding of vector graphics, creative design workflows, and professional production techniques.
You’ll start with the fundamentals — learning to navigate the interface, draw and edit vector shapes, and work confidently with colour and typography. As you progress, you’ll explore intermediate and advanced tools such as the Pen Tool, Gradient Mesh, 3D effects, Recolour Artwork options, and advanced blending and masking techniques. You’ll also gain experience creating digital illustrations, logos, and layouts while learning efficient workflows for print and web design.

By the end of your training, you’ll have a complete command of Adobe Illustrator and the confidence to tackle complex creative projects. This course also prepares you for the Adobe Certified Professional (ACP) exam, allowing you to validate your expertise with an industry-recognised certification.
