Art and Design Foundations Studies Certificate
This certificate offers students a rigorous foundation in the core areas of art and design, including drawing, creativity, design, technology, and presentation. This certificate is modeled after the first year of many art and design schools who require their students to complete a foundational curriculum before they can specialize in a specific area. As such, it offers students the opportunity to explore the creative fields and their own strengths before they determine a degree path. Students will develop a portfolio that will prepare them for entrance into various BFA programs. Students will also be prepared to complete an associates degree in Fine Art, Illustration, or Graphic Design at CCA.
