Description

Welcome to Creating Medical and Scientific Infographics With Canva, where I will teach you to create infographics using Canva.

With this course, you’ll learn about the different software programs available to create infographics, and we will be focusing in on using Canva, which is super easy to use and intended for non designers.

We’ll talk about what makes for an effective infographic, where to get templates, and then we will create an infographic, filling it out step-by-step. You can follow along, and by the end of this course, you’ll have your own infographic ready to go.

As a point of interest these infographics and their individual components can be made into any kind of social media posts if you’d like. So that might be useful too.

You can make infographics for your own purposes or offer them as a visual to your clients if you are for example, a freelance medical writer. If you are graduate student or post-doc research, perhaps you could find an interesting way to build awareness about your research through an easy to visualize infographic, downloadable from your website.

Everyone always like looking at an interesting infographic rather than reading a bunch of text.

If you haven’t used Canva before—no worries—it is super easy to use.

Join this course and create an infographic in a very short time!
