Which Live Online Illustrator Class is Right for Me?

You have several options when it comes to learning Illustrator, so we’ve chosen 71 of the best Live Online courses from the top 28 training providers to help you make your decision. But even so, with the variety of considerations including cost, duration, course format, starting level, and more, choosing the perfect course still isn’t that easy.

Here are the key questions you should ask yourself before enrolling in an Illustrator course. We hope you’ll find the best option based on your learning preferences and goals.

What level should I start at?

Enrolling in the right skill level is pivotal. Skipping over prerequisites can leave you confused, while choosing a course too easy will waste your time and tuition dollars.

Beginner Courses

If you’re new to Illustrator, there’s no need to fear. We’ve found 39 beginner courses, with costs ranging from $221 to $2,199. The top options open to beginners include:

How does live online Illustrator training work?

Live Online training is synchronous training where participants and the instructor attend remotely. Participants learn and interact with the instructor in real-time and can ask questions and receive feedback throughout the course. Instructors can remote into students’ computers (with prior permission) to assist with class exercises and any technical issues. The courses are hands-on and interactive like in-person training.

You can attend the course from your own home or office. This option works best for those without easy access to a nearby facility, and it has become increasingly popular during COVID-19.

If you attend a virtual training from your home or office, you’ll need a computer with strong internet access and any relevant software installed prior to the course. Most schools provide setup instructions before the course, and some will provide direct assistance.

The instruction takes place via a teleconferencing software like Zoom, Webex, or GoToMeeting, and some schools have their own learning portals.

When are Illustrator classes available?

It’s crucial to find a course that fits your schedule. For live online Illustrator training, we’ve found flexible scheduling options, including weekday, evening, and weekend courses.
