    InDesign & Photoshop Course

     

    On this InDesign & Photoshop Course you learn the techniques and features of both packages and how they work together to produce professional publications for either print or web. On this combination course you will learn how to create, edit and retouch photography in Photoshop then work in InDesign to create new and edit existing documents. You will then bring the two pieces of software together to produce elegant professional documents. 

     

    This combined InDesign & Photoshop training is delivered onsite UK wide for private company courses or delivered as 121 sessions for individuals.  This is a three day course.
