About this Photoshop Training

How the training works?

This is a live, instructor‑led Photoshop session delivered either online or onsite at your premises. A full training day runs for around six hours, with plenty of time for questions, demonstrations and guided practice. Everything is paced to suit you, whether you’re a complete beginner or already familiar with Photoshop.

Online sessions are delivered through Zoom or Teams and work exactly like an onsite day fully interactive, hands‑on and easy to follow. Onsite training can be delivered anywhere in the UK and can be tailored to your team’s workflow, brand and real project examples.

You’ll work on practical social media visuals throughout the day, learning how to build templates, apply brand styles and use Photoshop’s latest AI tools confidently. All course files are provided, and you’ll receive clear notes so you can revisit everything afterwards.

If time is tight, the day can be split into two half‑day sessions. Lifetime post‑course support is included, so you can always check in with questions as you start applying what you’ve learned.

Greta Powell Training Reviews“I had a great in‑person training session with Greta. The day was taken completely at my pace, with time to tailor the content to what I actually use day to day at work. We covered a lot across Illustrator and Photoshop, and everything was explained clearly. Greta is very friendly and made me feel at ease straight away. It’s brilliant knowing I have ongoing support if I ever get stuck.” Smart Payment Technologies Ltd, Coalville

“Greta delivered Illustrator training to our team at Walsall College and was an amazing instructor, fast‑paced, clear and incredibly supportive. She took time with anyone who needed extra help and made the whole group feel confident. I’ve always had a barrier with computers, but after the first day I couldn’t wait to get back on it. I can’t recommend her enough.” Wayne Aveline, Fashion Designer & Senior Lecturer, Walsall College
