Graphic Design Course in Nepal, Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Canva & Figma Basics

Saarathi Academy's 5-week Graphic Design program is built for exactly that. Five weeks, 50 guided hours: design judgment first, then typography, colour and layout, then Illustrator vector craft, then Photoshop, campaign and print work, then a full brand system, a Figma basics block and a published portfolio.

Why a Short, Focused Graphic Design Course in Kathmandu Makes Sense

• Five weeks is enough time to get genuinely good at one discipline. It is not enough to fake two, so this course stays on graphic design instead of half-teaching product design alongside it.
• Kathmandu SMEs, print shops, agencies and startups brief this exact skill set constantly: logo, brand book, poster, social set, print-ready file.
• A short, focused course means you can start taking paid work months earlier, then specialise later once you know which part of design you actually enjoy.
• Freelance design work travels well beyond one city, and portfolio strength decides who gets the brief.

What You Learn in Saarathi's 5-Week Design Program

The course builds design judgment before tool speed. Hierarchy, typography, colour, spacing and layout matter from day one, because tool skill sitting on a weak eye produces tidy but forgettable work. Once that base is in, Illustrator and Photoshop become far more useful, far faster.

From there it moves into logo and vector craft, campaign artwork and print production, a full brand system shipped as a mini brand book, and a Figma basics block so you can lay out a landing-page hero or a social kit without pretending to be a product designer.

• Visual design fundamentals: typography, type scales, colour systems, grids, hierarchy, composition and whitespace.
• Adobe Illustrator for logos, lockups, icons and vector work that stays sharp at any size.
• Adobe Photoshop for campaign artwork, compositing, retouching and clean export.
• Print production: 3mm bleed, CMYK profiles, 300dpi assets and PDF/X-1a export you can hand a Kathmandu printer.
• Brand identity: logo families, clearspace, misuse rules, type and colour systems, packaged as a mini brand book.
• Figma basics: frames, auto-layout, components and styles, enough to lay out a landing-page hero and a social kit.
• AI design tools inside a real workflow: Adobe Firefly, Midjourney, Canva AI and Adobe Sensei, drafted then finished by hand.

Why Saarathi Academy for Graphic Design Training in Nepal

• Every week ships a deliverable, so five weeks later you have a portfolio rather than a folder of notes.
• Small-batch delivery leaves room for critique and revision, which is what actually improves visual judgment.
• Print and campaign production are taught properly instead of skipped, because a lot of local paid work sits exactly there.
• You leave with a published Behance portfolio, a freelance pricing baseline in NPR, and practice presenting work to a client.

Career Outcomes and What Comes Next

This course supports outcomes such as Junior Graphic Designer, Brand Designer, Social Media Designer and freelance design work. The real value is that five weeks in, you have a defensible starting portfolio instead of a certificate.

After the course you are positioned for junior design roles, agency and print-shop work, or freelance clients. If you later want to move into UI/UX and product design, the visual foundation built here is the exact part most beginners in that path are missing.
