Students learn how to develop his or her portfolio, and covers topics such as eye-catching designs and their importance, the right way of marketing and the need to keep a record of all the individuals who have received the portfolio and provided feedback on the designs of the cards.

You will look at business matters, such as the pricing of the products, how to sell them, how to market them, and the importance of organisational skills for the card making business.
