De nada Anna. Sometimes I wish I had the time to take some graphic design courses but I am just soooooooooo buzy with my website and designing other webs for clients s well. There are also so many schools here in Madrid that I get overwhelmed by the offers and just say to myself "next month" and never get around to signing up for a course  Oh well, I guess it is self teaching for me. That's ok though since I learn a lot on my own due to my love for graphic/web design  Saludos & Suerte, jer...

Based on the websites most of these have, I would question their credentials as "design schools" Egads! The one with the music and little "spinning" gif! Danger Will Robinson! The best school evidently is IED which is an Italian one. It however appears that they teach "how to design confusing websites" http://www.ied.es/ |

Lenora, what is the name of the Arts and Crafts school?-In spanish please. Anna, can you get into a masters program with only an AA degree? Or are you looking to the spanish masters(which careful here, some really are masters and others are called masters but are more of a continuing education thing.)?

I hear ya Asterault, a few of those sites are pretty aweful but I find that it is usually the design school or web design company itself that is the last to have a website, or in this case, a decent one so I am pretty sure it does not reflect upon their quality of teaching (I hope ) What ever happened to originality and good taste? What's with all the cheesoid chopshop websites out there with the hideous cut & past clip art animations Saludos, jer...

Jer, from my experience, there's such a high demand for people to do web-design.. and MANY of them self-taught, some have a better eye for it than others (which is why, you, self-taught) does a better job than some guy who can wing it, and make a pretty good paycheck from it. Spain is also doing a lot of catching up in the internet arena (this from professional marketing me) and especially for mid-small companies, I've noticed that they also don't maximise the web-sites marketing potential. Either they don't realize it, or again, we go back to the guy they hired to do it not really having the know-how necessary to do a good job! As for a graphic design school having a crappy website... well that's just sad! But if their speciality is in graphic design (which is print media unless specified web-design) well... but they should still know better when they see a poorly done website! Is there no shame!?
