Open Public
Courses |
| Tutor led
public courses which are scheduled on a regular basis at our
SE1 London training centre. |
|
|
 |
|
Company Specific Courses |
| Company
specific courses are available for organisations that have
several employees who all need training at the same time or the
course required is not part of our normal Open Public Course
schedule. . |
| These closed
courses are ideal where tailoring of the standard course content
is required. When compared to the Open Public Course option,
they typically provide cost benefits when there are three or more
employees who need training simultaneously. |
| Courses can be
run on-site if suitable facilities exist or at our
SE1 London training centre. |
|
|
|
|
|
One-On-One Mentoring -
Personal Coaching |
| Ideal for
individual delegates who have a specific requirement from the
software or where previous knowledge makes group training
inappropriate. The pace and the content of the course can then
be adjusted to the individuals exact needs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Floor - Walking |
| Where
attendance on a course may not be considered appropriate, our
trainers will visit clients offices on an ad-hoc or regular
basis, resolving individual issues on a case by case basis
- delivering quick training sessions on the "front line" at the
desk. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| In addition to
classroom based courses, we also offer a substantial range of
computer (CBT) and web (WBT) based training courses. C/WBT
are alternative education methods for those individuals looking
for perhaps a cheaper alternative to traditional instructor led
(ILT) training. |

Essential Photoshop - Foundation
Level (1 Day) |
|
|
This
fully packed one day course is intended to provide a solid foundation
in the use of Adobe’s Photoshop image-editing
application. It is delivered to give users an overall
introduction to the package, with an eye towards
establishing from the beginning best practices in the
enhancement and optimisation of images. While
principally based version 7 of the product, at this
level it’s content is just as relevant to Photoshop CS
and CS2 users. |
|
|
Delegates
require an understanding of PC’s and familiarity with
the use of a keyboard and mouse. A basic knowledge of
Windows (or Mac OS) and using a browser program to
access the Internet is assumed. |
|
|
By the end of the course, participants
will be able to competently navigate the interface and
know what all the tools can do. They will know how to
use Photoshop to optimize graphics for either print or
web pages and how to manipulate tone and colour in
images to evoke certain moods or highlight particular
areas in an image for the best effect. Delegates should
also be comfortable with the use of dozens of special
effects Photoshop provides – such as filters, lighting
effects, stippling, textures and animations. |
