Course Overview

  The Adobe InDesign CC Core Skills: Level 1 course is designed for intro level and self-taught InDesign users, and will teach them how to create, edit and manage documents and artwork in InDesign CC. Students will learn about the InDesign Interface, how to create text frames and graphic frames, how to customize and save workspaces, how to set up documents and document presets, and use zoom and navigation tools to work effectively with their layouts.

  • Setting up a Document and Working with Pages

Rating 5.0 / 5.0

This was the class I needed. The instructor Jeff took his time and made sure we understood each topic before moving to the next. He answered all of our questions, and I don’t know about the rest of the students, but was very pleased with this experience.
