TOP REVIEWS FROM USE CANVA TO CREATE SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING DESIGNS
Good course for onboarding users starting with Canva. Helped me explore Canva easily. Could have been a bit more detailed. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to attend this course free of cost.
The lecture is presented in a manner that is simple and easy to understand. I would have wanted to learn more about how to use Canva when creating other common projects, like an infographic perhaps.
Very useful for the one who is learning it for the first time. well explained and guided. But if you are acquainted with Canva, i would suggest you to find another project. This was very basic.
Very well presented and explained. One of the best software web tool for designing even though one has no prior designing knowledge. Well Explained by the instructor Stacy Shankin-Langford.
