Adobe Creative training in Geneva and Lausanne. 4 days to discover the 4 pillar suite tools and their articulation with ITTA Switzerland today.

The course’s objective is to allow regular Illustrator users to be more autonomous and versatile and to acquire the knowledge required to become a recognized software expert.
Adobe Illustrator is a widely used tool software for professional vector drawing and graphic illustration. A pillar of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite alongside Photoshop and InDesign, it is used daily by graphic designers, illustrators, art directors, packaging designers, web designers and communication officers to produce logos, visual identities, infographics, illustrations, icons, maps, patterns, print materials and web elements. Its vector technology allows scale-independent rendering quality, essential for materials ranging from business cards to large-format display.
In French-speaking Switzerland, Geneva and Lausanne communication agencies, internal marketing departments of private banks and international organisations, design studios, digital agencies, IT service companies, university hospitals, scale-ups and cantonal administrations use Illustrator for daily graphic production. ITTA offers the official Adobe Illustrator catalogue, covering all levels (introduction, intermediate, expert). Our training is delivered by graphic designers and Adobe Certified Instructor trainers active in production projects for Swiss and international clients.
Following a recognised Adobe Illustrator training opens access to highly demanded roles: graphic designer, art director, illustrator, packaging designer, web designer, motion designer, visual communication officer, UI/UX designer (in complement to Figma and Adobe XD). Adobe Illustrator systematically figures among the skills expected on the graphic production and visual creation side in French-speaking Switzerland.
Whether you are a beginner in graphic design, a communication officer producing visuals in-house, a designer ramping up to intermediate and expert levels, or a professional illustrator industrialising production, our Adobe Illustrator training in Geneva and Lausanne covers the full path, from introduction to expert tools and techniques.
Introduction to Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Acrobat DC is the ideal transversal course for profiles discovering the Adobe Creative Cloud suite. The programme positions each software in its specific use: Illustrator for vector and logo, Photoshop for photo retouching and bitmap, InDesign for layout and editing, Acrobat for PDF and distribution. This course is particularly suited to communication officers, marketing assistants and profiles in transition to graphic design.
Adobe Illustrator CC – Fundamentals is the natural entry for starting with Illustrator. The programme covers the interface, workspaces, essential tools (selection, pen, shapes, transformations), layers and their organisation, colours and swatches, simple text, saving and exporting for print and web. It is the indispensable foundation before aiming for intermediate and advanced levels. The training is very hands-on with concrete exercises from the first hours.
Adobe Illustrator CC – Intermediate deepens advanced features: professional typography (character and paragraph styles, glyphs, ligatures), fine path management (advanced pen tool, scissors, eraser, tracer), gradients and gradient meshes, clipping and opacity masks, patterns, symbols, effects and appearance, advanced layer management. It targets designers producing rich and structured visuals.
Adobe Illustrator CC – Advanced covers expert tools and techniques: advanced live tracing, complex illustration (perspective, 3D), packaging and technical dieline, complete brand identity, logo and visual identity declensions, complex infographics (maps, diagrams), Creative Cloud asset library management, automation (actions, scripts, variables), integration with InDesign, Photoshop and After Effects. It targets professional designers industrialising their production and art directors.
Adobe Illustrator fits into a broader visual creation ecosystem. The graphic design and DTP sub-domain regroups our Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Acrobat training. Adobe Photoshop is the natural complement for photo retouching, bitmap and mixed vector/bitmap compositions. Adobe InDesign is the complement for layout and editing (brochures, magazines, books, reports). The visual presentation sub-domain covers PowerPoint and Canva, complementary to Illustrator for quick materials. Adobe regroups the entire Adobe catalogue.
Adobe Illustrator continues to evolve in 2026 with strong attention on generative AI and productivity. Adobe Firefly is now natively integrated into Illustrator to generate vector illustrations from text prompts (Generative Recolor, Generative Pattern, Text to Vector). Creative Cloud libraries allow sharing swatches, styles and assets between Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign across teams. Real-time collaboration (Share for review) facilitates back-and-forth with clients and teams. Web export (optimised SVG) and high-resolution screens remain at the heart of evolutions. Our pedagogical content regularly integrates these evolutions to remain aligned with current practices.
All our Adobe Illustrator courses are available on-site in our Geneva and Lausanne centres, as well as in interactive virtual classroom with an Adobe Certified Instructor live. Our sessions are organised in 5-week cycles. Each session includes hands-on labs on latest Illustrator CC, graphic production exercises inspired by real projects (logo, brand identity, packaging, infographic), sample files to manipulate and individualised follow-up. Customised corporate training is also possible at your premises, in Geneva, Lausanne, Vaud and across French-speaking Switzerland, with a programme adapted to your production types (internal brand identity, packaging, marketing materials).

Which Adobe Illustrator course to choose to start?
For profiles discovering the entire Adobe suite, the Introduction to Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop and Acrobat DC training positions each software. For those targeting Illustrator directly, Adobe Illustrator CC Fundamentals is the natural entry. Profiles already mastering the fundamentals move to Intermediate then Advanced. Our pedagogical team guides you according to your profile.
Illustrator or Photoshop: which to choose?
Both software are complementary. Illustrator is specialised in vector drawing (logos, illustrations, infographics, icons) that allows scale-independent quality. Photoshop is specialised in photo retouching and bitmap. Most designers master both. For branding and visual identity, Illustrator is priority. For photo and composition, Photoshop. Our catalogue covers both.
Adobe Illustrator or Figma: which to choose?
Both have distinct positions. Illustrator is a widely used tool for vector graphic production (logos, illustrations, packaging, print). Figma is dominant for web and application UI/UX design, with real-time collaboration and prototyping. Many designers use both depending on projects. Our Illustrator training focuses on professional graphic production.
