Small class size

Personalized learning allows you to get one-on-one help, get questions answered, and interact with the instructor and others in the course.

Live learning

Learn live and get your questions answered immediately, or have things explained differently. You can even share your screen with the instructor as you get help.

Hands-on learning

Our courses are interactive with hands-on projects, exercises, and labs. You'll see clear demonstrations and explanations followed by opportunities to practice your newly learned skills with an instructor available to answer questions and provide guidance every step of the way.

In-person courses

If you prefer to learn in-person, attend classes at our training center located in suburban Boston. We provide your choice of a Mac or Windows computer as you learn hands-on in the same classroom with one of our expert instructors.

Earn a verified certificate

You’ll earn a certificate from American Graphics Institute, a private licensed school.

Proven Curriculum

AGI develops detailed proprietary curriculum based on our decades of teaching. Our teaching process helps you to learn quickly and easily.

Guaranteed learning

If you don’t learn the topics in our course syllabus, even after repeating a course, we will schedule a one-on-one training to help make sure you understand them. If you find that your course isn’t the right one for you, through the first half of the course you can transfer your registration fees to another course.

Networking

Our small class sizes let you interact with instructors that are experts in the field, and other professionals. In-person classes give you the chance to extend the networking over breaks and lunch.

Flexible Training Options

Learn anywhere with our live online classes, or in-person at our training center. All courses are available daytime during weekdays, with many also available in the evening.

Affordable Learning

We keep our courses affordable compared to other live training options. We offer many introductory courses at affordable rates to make it easier for you to learn.

Flexible Payment plans

After an initial down payment, you can spread the cost of your certificate program across 9 months with no interest or additional fees.

Career Counseling

If you are enrolled in a certificate program, a dedicated career counselor will work with you to identify job opportunities, connect you with companies that contact American Graphics Institute looking to hire our graduates, and assist in preparing you for interviews. Our career counselor’s only responsibility is to help our certificate program students find a job.

1-on-1 training

When enrolled in a certificate program you will have on-on-one time with our instructors to review concepts from classes, build projects that showcase your skills, and develop your portfolio.
