So many topics relevant to web designers that are never covered in classes at Ai. For instances we have to take 2 classes about e learning but no classes about e commerce. Really? Do they think we are more likely to find job openings in e learning or eCommerce? Basically I read the curriculum for other web design courses and found classes that we do not get.Great resources on my pinterest boards
Here is a list of topics that are not taught at Ai that I am going to research on my own or that are barely covered:
Design and Build HTML Emails
eCommerce
Running a Successful Freelance or Small Creative Business
Infographic Design
WordPress
Social Media for Marketing
Mobile Devices
Adobe InDesign

Basic programming terminology, concepts, and best practices
Introduction to Web Security

WOW that's a pretty long list!!!!!!
