blast from the past…

Just before February half-term, we had a visiting lecture here at EDGD from ex-student Rebecca Morris. Rebecca graduated from our very own Extended Diploma Graphic Design course way back in 2009, and we wanted someone to talk to our current students about the challenges and experiences they may face after completing our course. Post EDGD, Rebecca went on to start a degree course at UCLAN in Preston, but eventually transferred back to Blackburn to complete her BA studies here at the college University Centre. 
After graduating from her degree course, Rebecca did a couple of work placements in design studios before landing a job at Source Creative, based here in Blackburn. This has obviously made her very happy, and it was great to her Rebecca talk about her experiences as a student here at Blackburn College, the challenges faced when studying at university level, as well as the drive and motivation that is needed to become an employed and exciting graphic designer! She brought along her college portfolio and examples of her current graphic design work. 
We here at EDGD want to say a great big thank-you to Rebecca for coming back and paying us a visit :)
