Shillington College
World class education needn’t take forever. It should be well structured, constantly evolving to reflect commercial practices and presented by passionate professionals. That’s what happens at Shillington College and we have the record to prove it. Our students are taught by outstanding graphic designers and are getting top design jobs. Starting with no prior knowledge they graduate with a professional design portfolio and an in-depth knowledge of the Adobe design programs.
But don’t take our word for it, you can browse samples of our student’s design work and hear what some of our graduates have to say about their experiences as designers.
We offer 3 month full-time and 1 year part-time courses in computer graphic design at our colleges in London, Manchester, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and at Shillington School in New York, USA.

Ubiq
Creative training courses in web development, coding, digital imaging, animation, page layout and graphics software at our London training centre or onsite.
Established in 1997, Ubiq is a unique home-based training company based in East Dulwich, London. We run our courses in a comfortable room with an adjoining lounge area. Our customers are made to feel at home, relaxed and at ease, and as a result, they learn more. We can also deliver training tailored to your own requirements, either here or on your own premises.
About our courses
We are a fully independant training company, and we design our own courses around real-world projects, concentrating on the most important skills and techniques you will need. We deliver courses in the Adobe Creative Suite and related coding languages for the web. We employ expert trainers who are also working industry professionals with proven teaching skills. See our Trainers page for more details. Our courses include certification, free technical support, course notes and supporting materials and last but not least, a really fantastic home-cooked lunch.
Small classes for a better learning experience
We believe in quality over quantity, so we train no more than four people in a group. Small groups allow for a much greater level of interaction between trainer and students. In many ways, this is even better than a one-to-one course, as you will generally find yourself with a small group of people with similar interests. If you’ve been disappointed in the past by typical classroom-based courses, then this will be a new and much better experience.
