Delivery options
This Advanced InDesign course can be delivered online or onsite. Most individuals and small teams choose live online training for convenience, flexibility and easier scheduling, but onsite sessions are available across the Midlands and UK when hands‑on support is preferred.
Short Sprints and half‑day sessions are available as online‑only options for teams who prefer shorter, focused advanced training blocks.
Life time after course support
You’ll leave the course with practical, advanced workflows you can apply straight away. All training includes lifetime after‑course support, so if you ever get stuck or need help applying any of the techniques to your own documents, you’re welcome to get in touch.
Support is provided directly by your trainer, Greta, via email, recorded video walkthroughs or a face‑to‑face online session for more complex issues.

Adobe Masterclass for Catalogue Design
It was perfect, I had a great 5 days with Greta. My original objective was to create large corporate catalogues which was a bit daunting for me on day one. After five days I now feel confident about them with my knowledge of Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign.
Thank you Greta
