This course is intended for experienced Photoshop users and those who have taken our Photoshop 1 course.
This is a practical programme, which includes exercises that will build your knowledge and allow time for individual learning. The course isn’t just about teaching you what different features do – you’ll also learn how to use those features to best effect.
Group sizes are kept deliberately small, ensuring that you get the individual attention you need as you work through a number of confidence-building exercises.
