Are you looking for Photoshop Training in your organisation? I can help you learn Photoshop in an efficient and fun way. I provide onsite training and attendees will need to have a laptop with Adobe Photoshop installed.

I have been teaching Adobe Photoshop for over 15 years and am a certified Adobe Education Trainer. I also USE Photoshop everyday for my own graphic design and illustration work. I offer the following one-day Photoshop course for absolute beginners. The course is practical, hands-on and good fun.
