Adobe Illustrator Certification
Graphics professionals work with two types of graphics: raster and vector graphics. Adobe Illustrator is considered one of the leading vector graphics programs for both print and web. Skills mastered in this certificate benefit the graphic designer, web designer, prepress professional, and desktop publisher. Although this is not a career certificate, this award will enhance the recipient's value in the job market.

This certificate prepares the student for the Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) industry exam in Illustrator. In addition to the preparation provided by this certificate, desktop publishers should also have a good understanding of design, layout, typography, and color.
