Visual design is more important than ever, yet many organizations do not have a dedicated graphic design team. That might create certain challenges for you, your technical documentation, and ultimately your customers. Perhaps you find yourself in a situation where you need to create diagrams for your documentation but you’re not quite sure what colors to use, what the different shapes mean, or even where to start because you don’t have a design standard to help you. In this workshop, you’ll unlock your creativity and learn how you can create a graphic template for your team that will help you maintain visual consistency in your docs and improve your customers’ satisfaction and trust.
Takeaways
Participants will get a design template they can easily modify and reuse. They will understand how to use and combine colors and graphic elements to create consistent, visually appealing diagrams.
Please bring your laptop and a mouse (it would be easier to complete the tasks) and make sure that you have PowerPoint installed.
