You don’t need to be a designer anymore. Not when 265 million people are using Canva to create professional-looking content — and the platform’s AI tools have been used over 16 billion times.

But most people barely scratch the surface. They know about templates. Maybe they’ve tried the background remover. They have no idea that Canva can now generate entire designs from a sentence, write marketing copy that matches their brand voice, create videos with AI, and build interactive mini-apps without writing code.

This course walks you through every AI feature in Canva’s Magic Studio — from the obvious ones to the tools even power users miss. Eight lessons, real workflows, and by the end you’ll know exactly which AI tool to reach for (and when to skip it and do it yourself).
