You can choose to go to for a Graphic design or visual communication course from a reputed institute like NID or IIT Guwhati for undergraduate level. Backing your profile with a good college degree is very important in design market. There is no formal coaching required to get into these schools however there are many of these available. You must prepare a good portfolio for interview and do some test preparation by looking at the sample paper's on their websites. Portfolio becomes very important once you clear the 1st level written test. Portfolio is to be shown during the personal interview.
