Adobe InDesign Introduction Course ...

The InDesign Training is held onsite across the Midlands and the UK and run at all levels from Introduction through to Advanced and tailored workshops. It is suitable for both private individuals or closed company groups looking for private and more specific training in their own environment. This Introduction to InDesign Training is ideal for those wishing to learn the software from scratch or seeking an InDesign Refresher Course. It can be run in all versions of the software and any feature or technique from other courses can be included.

Adobe InDesign Training - What you Learn on this...

This introduction to InDesign course is designed for those with little or no experience of the software but who need to edit current documents or create new ones. It is suitable for anyone who is looking to use the software quickly and effectively to complete their work. By the end of the InDesign training you will have the skills to produce a range of documents from administration documents, tenders, business stationary, marketing materials, small brochures, leaflets and more.

Because of its tight integration with Photoshop and Illustrator we often include a brief overview of how these work in combination with InDesign and explain the fundamentals of Photoshop's Image size, Resolution and Image Mode tools and how Illustrator works.

As well as the practicalites of using InDesign our courses place a strong emphasis on design. Not only do we teach you the skills to create, edit and publish various documentation but we also work with you to show you how colour harmony works, the most effective typeface and how to work with and use grids for practical and professional layout.
