NEW Elective Course 118: Center for Civic Design Course

Cut through the noise and reach voters with communications that truly connect. In this interactive workshop, you’ll learn how to make complex information easier to understand using plain language, and how to use visual design principles to make materials that stand out (for all the right reasons). You’ll see examples from work and research with election offices and voters across the country and you’ll leave with practical strategies to create clear, accessible voter materials of your own.

Course Objectives:

• Apply plain language principles to voter forms, instructions, and outreach materials so that information is easy to find, understand, and use

• Use practical tools and strategies to collaborate effectively with designers and make informed design decisions

• Confidently create voter-facing materials that are clear, accessible, and effective
