What this is

Design School is split into short modules: composition, typography, colour, brand consistency, social media formats. All of it is done inside Canva itself.

The certificate is a weak signal on its own, and we say so plainly. Its value appears next to a portfolio: on an SMM vacancy the work decides, not the document.

Who it is for

SMM beginners, small business owners and teachers who make their own visuals.

How to get it

  1. 1Open Canva and create a free account. No card is asked for at any point.
  2. 2Work through the material, ~4 h in total. It is self-paced, so the time is yours to spread.
  3. 3Complete every module. The document is issued on completion, not on an exam result.
  4. 4Download the certificate as a PDF and keep the verification link, which is what an employer actually checks.

What to watch for

An employer will not count the document alone. Show the work beside it.

Where this helps

Live remote vacancies in the same direction. You apply on the employer's own site; the board itself is written in Georgian.
