Do designers need to evolve?
In last week's Feature, David Armano claimed creativity is evolving. "It's about being curious, empathetic, analytical, insightful and expressive all at the same time." We wanted to know if you agreed:
59% Yes. These are key skills to solving communications problems.
20% No. Armano is talking about skills designers have always used.
24% Maybe. But it requires both designer and client to change.

CSD Course Recognition bridges gap between Earning & Learning
In a major move to bridge the gap between ‘learning’ and ‘earning’, the Chartered Society of Designers has launched its latest initiative, the CSD Course Recognition Programme.
Design courses worldwide can now apply to be recognised by CSD, the professional body for designers. Recognition is achieved by submitting standard documents to CSD for scrutiny by an education and professional panel. CSD will be looking for specific modules to be taught within the course that are compatible with the professional practice requirements for membership of the Society. These modules include professional practice, cross cultural awareness, values and continuing professional development.
Chief Executive Frank Peters MCSD said, ‘The remit of the Society for the past 75 years has been professional practice, which now seems to have been added to everyone’s agenda. Membership of the Society and the requirements of today’s design sector demand a high level of professional practice, and we have developed this programme with education in order to equip those studying design with the mechanics to continually develop their professional skills’.
