Design & Grind

P&M Continuted Education The P&M Digital Print Consultants are ready to launch a new Graphic Design training program for the OSU community.  Design & Grind aka InDesign & Coffee, is our casual and interactive approach to teaching you what you need to develop your own business or marketing materials using Adobe InDesign and Acrobat.  The series is ongoing with monthly sessions that will be posted here and on our Up & Coming Calendar for your reference.  Best of all, we will use your projects that you need to tackle as the focal point in each session.

At the first session on Friday, August 14th, we will tackle your most pressing questions and then YOU get to tell us what you want to learn, and we will will use that feedback to shape future sessions.  First come, first serve, we will take your real life project and shape it infront of all attendees so everyone can learn and you get a head start.  You bring yourselves and we will bring the coffee!

Do you have design questions you would like us to cover at a new session?  Or do you just have a quick question for a project you need to complete?  Please contact Carrie Groves to send us your inquiry.
