Design cases cover a wide range of requests — from single-line copy edits to new page builds, form overhauls, and service area map updates. Handling them well means more than knowing the technical steps. It means reading the case fully before touching anything, recognising when something belongs to another queue, and closing out with enough detail that anyone on the team can follow what happened.
This course covers the case nuances and common resolutions a designer needs to work through the design queue independently. It is a companion to Managing Case Queues, which covers the queue workflow and process side of cases. The two courses can be completed in any order.

No. This course covers design cases only. Non-design case types and queue workflow are out of scope here.
The common case type resolutions in Section 2 are relevant to AMs as a reference. The course is written with designers as the primary audience, so some tool-specific steps apply to designers only.
