Why this one

Where this actually takes you

Design is the fastest track to freelance income from a tier-3 city, because the work travels. A client in Bangalore never has to know where you live.

Graphic Designer

In-house or agency, doing brand and marketing creative.

Freelance Designer

Logos, social kits and brand identities, sold remotely.

Junior UI Designer

The on-ramp into product design, which pays significantly more.

The syllabus

Three months, foundation to advanced

12 weekends. 24 live sessions. Each month ends with something you built and can show — not a certificate of attendance.

1 Month 1 · Foundation

Seeing like a designer

The rules underneath every good-looking thing you have ever seen.

  • Layout, hierarchy, spacing and alignment — why some designs feel "clean"
  • Typography: choosing, pairing and setting type that reads
  • Colour theory and building a usable palette
  • Figma from zero: frames, components, auto-layout
You finish withTen redesigns of badly designed local posters, with a written rationale for each.
2 Month 2 · Core

Brand and campaign work

Moving from single graphics to systems that hold together.

  • Logo design: marks, wordmarks and what makes one work at 16px
  • Brand identity systems — colour, type, tone, usage rules
  • Social media creative that performs, not just looks nice
  • Print basics: bleed, CMYK, and files a printer will accept
You finish withA complete brand identity for a real local business, delivered as a usable kit.
3 Month 3 · Advanced

UI basics and getting paid

Interfaces, handoff, and running yourself as a business.

  • UI fundamentals: grids, components, states, responsive layout
  • Designing a landing page that converts, with the marketing mentor
  • Handoff to developers — what they need from you and why
  • Portfolio, pricing, client briefs and getting paid on time
You finish withCapstone: a published portfolio of three case studies, reviewed like a real hiring panel would.

What you walk out with

Tools you'll actually have used

Not a reading list. Every one of these is used in a graded exercise during the course.

FigmaCanvaAdobe IllustratorAdobe PhotoshopColour & type systems

A portfolio, not a certificate

Three graded pieces of real work — one per month — plus the capstone. This is what gets you the interview.

A certificate from Snow Stag

Issued on completing the assessment and attending enough of the course to have earned it.

Interview preparation

Mock interviews, CV and LinkedIn review, and how to talk about work you have actually done.

The fee

Deliberately small, on purpose

Mentors volunteer their weekends. The fee covers what it costs to run the course — nothing more. It is charged monthly so nobody has to find a large sum upfront.

1

Certificate and interview preparation

Money should not be the reason you don't apply. If even this is out of reach, say so on your application. We would rather find a way than lose someone who wants it.

Pairs well with

What to take next — or alongside

Each course stands on its own. But some combinations make you noticeably harder to replace, and these are the ones worth planning for.

Before you apply

The honest answers

No. This course starts at foundation level and assumes nothing. What you do need is twelve weekends of genuine attention — that is the real entry requirement, and the one most people underestimate.

No. Classes are live and online, so you join from wherever you are. The whole point of these skills is that the work travels even when you do not.

That is exactly who this is built for. Classes are Saturdays & Sundays only, plus practice time in between. Nothing happens on a weekday.

Every session is recorded and yours to keep. But attendance is tracked — people who watch recordings instead of attending consistently do not finish, and we would rather tell you that now.

Yes. ₹3,000 in total across 3 months, paid monthly. No registration fee, no material charges, no exam fee. Note that fees are not refundable, so please be sure before you commit.

We do not guarantee jobs, and be careful of anyone who does. What you get is a portfolio of real work, a certificate, mock interviews and CV support. The hiring decision belongs to employers.

Dates are being confirmed now. Applying puts you on the list first — applicants hear the start date before it is announced publicly.
