Adobe Photoshop is the clear market leader and sets the world standard for image-editing software. Photoshop provides a comprehensive toolkit, unmatched precision and powerful creative options to help you to create professional-quality images for both the Web and for printed media.

Photoshop has an entirely undeserved reputation for being quirky and difficult to learn. This is because you can't simply fire up Photoshop and "learn by doing". Photoshop is a professional tool that requires a lot of background understanding about the science of colour and printing technologies before many features make any sense at all. For example, increasing saturation and shifting Hue would not make very much sense without an understanding of the HSB colour model.

Our course incrementally introduces the theory behind Photoshop's tools and then immediately applies this theory in a hands-on session. Lecturing and direct instruction is kept to a minimum but all essential theory is fully explained with the innovative use of visual aids.

Our no-nonsense jargon-free teaching method completely de-mystifies complex concepts such as image resolution, screen frequency, lossy compression and vector graphics.
