Make IT Happen with Canva

Graphic Designing Skill Development Workshop

Canva is a simplistic graphic-design application founded in 2012. It provides access to a variety of photographs, vectors, graphics, and fonts. The application exists for both web and print media design and graphics. Canva accounts assist creators to innovate with ease on any web-browser, by following a simple sign-up procedure. This application is available on Android and Apple

A workshop for Canva was a necessity after recognizing the value it has in our work. As the event commenced, SAC faculty head Dr Shikha Singh welcomed all students and our guest speaker, Mr Yoheswaran (Yogi) Gnanavel. A brief introduction was given by Club-Head Avnie Bansal, followed by Deputy Head Saarthak Barathi who introduced the workshop. Team member, Manvika Singh, introduced Technatics, and Aditya Singh, a member of graphic designing, went ahead to introduce the Canva Application. Shubh Jain introduced our experienced instructor and then began the workshop as planned.

Under the guidance of Mr Yoheswaran (Yogi) Gnanavel, students walked through the entire process of creation as he designed a poster for technatics from scratch. He was open to questions and suggestions on his poster, to which our students responded with utmost excitement and interest. Mr.Yogi’s experience and expertise were hands-on in making the workshop flow smoothly. He even asked students to pitch in ideas as he designed a poster for an explanation. Students very eagerly responded and participated and suggested colour schemes, design/ layout ideas, and more. Some students even designed their posters in live time and sent those in! Canva’s easy to use interface and amazing features alongside a skillful explanation by Mr Yogi made the canva workshop a hit. Mr Yogi explained the basic difference between Canva, and Canva pro -the premium plan of Canva that comes with additional features including unlimited storage for photos and assets. It grants an affordable easy way to use tools to create stunning designs in minutes by yourself without graphic designing skills.

The placement drive that is organized during the second half of the academic year open up several opportunities to the young leaders. Companies participate this drive on invitations. Nominations from the students are called for and they are mapped with the requirement of the corporates visiting for the drive. The Corporate affairs department facilitates the match making and a superb experience is provided during the drive. The placement process is conducted on the campus and at times the screening happens.
