These students bring a lot to my studio and I get as much from them as they get from being here. When all of the details are worked out, I'll post more information. But, for now, if you have a student considering a vocational school, I cannot say enough about their programs and instructors. Having worked on the Graphic Imaging Board with Joel, I have seen his passion for the program and for the students he has taught. Some information about Joel:
