Design Professional Resource

AIGA (an American organization) represents a variety of professions under the umbrella of communication design, ranging from book and type design to interactive design and experience design. We support design professionals, educators and students throughout their careers.

AIGA works to:

• Inform about best practices, standards for ethical conduct and professional expertise
• Communicate design’s importance to the public and business leaders about the power of design
• Inspire through articles, online galleries, profiles, videos and exhibitions
• Represent the profession through a network of chapters and student groups
• Stimulate discussion of the industry through events, social media and websites

Although focused on the American market, it may provide you with some valuable insights if you are a freelance designer.
