Our online training is designed to re-create the classroom experience as closely as possible. It is a live training session using Zoom or Teams and the trainer is there throughout. The training is still hands-on so you do need to have the software installed on your own computer. The trainer shares their screen to demonstrate techniques and there is also the option of being able to share your screen if you are really stuck! Depending on the class size, which we still keep to a maximum of 8, questions can be asked at any time or at set points throughout the day.

The trainers like to see you! They much prefer it if you have a camera on so they can see you as well as you them.

We provide everything that you will need for a fun, productive day of training.

We provide plenty of tea, coffee & biscuits,and a USB stick so that you can take files home with you.

Our focus is on you being a faster, more capable Illustrator user when you return to work.

Our courses combine traditional teaching to explain new concepts and tools with hands-on exercises.

The exercises ensure that you get plenty of time to try out what you have just been taught and make sure that you really understand it.

We also make sure that there is plenty of time for you to ask questions in case there is anything you are unsure of.

Adobe Illustrator will give you the tools necessary to quickly draw shapes, diagrams and plans that can then be saved in formats suitable for inclusion in documents for print, Powerpoint and Web. You’ll be able to create graphs, logos, infographics, icons, maps, and even trace images to convert them into editable line drawings and shapes, without having to draw them manually.

We will give each attendee a Certificate which can be used in the future to show attendance and your ability to use the software.

Adobe Illustrator costs under £20/month on a Creative Cloud subscription.
