This InDesign Course content takes between one and two days depending on the amount of people sitting on the training – for one person a day usually suffices but for small groups of between 4 and 6 people two days is more realistic. 

It is available as Online InDesign Training or Onsite InDesign Training and is perfect for both company courses or individual sessions.

24 /7 and Weekend Adobe Training Courses

We run online InDesign training courses on a 24 /7 basis including evenings, overnight and at weekends. 

We appreciate that not everyone likes a full days training so for the online courses we can split the full days into half days and deliver them over a period of time.

*We can only offer 1 /2 day sessions for online training courses.

Over the years the course has been delivered to a wide range of delegates including marketeers, designers, content creators, educators, publishing, administration, construction, finance to name a few.

This is perfect for anyone completely new to the software and looking to grasp the fundamentals quickly and easily. It is particularly popular with small business users who are looking to produce marketing and business documents in-house without the need for an external designer.

Many of our clients prefer to tailor their own Adobe courses and to mix and match content from our other courses to create a totally bespoke InDesign Course.

And by the way we don’t mind if you’re wearing your Jim-Jams or last nights lop-sided party hat.

All our digital design courses are available online. If you have any questions about any of our Online Adobe Training courses please do not hesitate to pick up the phone or drop us an email.
