Please note that while this class is perfect for beginners to the Adobe Creative suite, you will require basic computer skills. This includes keyboard and mouse skills (including being familiar with various right mouse click functions) and being able to comfortably navigate your way around either an Apple or Windows environment.

This course will not teach those basic computer skills.

Please bring a pen, paper and USB stick (to save your work between classes) to each session.
