Overview

In today's fast-paced digital media landscape, mastering Adobe software is essential. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, about 20,000 job openings are expected each year through 2034 due to workforce turnover and retirements, making obtaining certifications related to software, like Adobe, a valuable asset for standing out in this competitive field.

Our Adobe Certification course offers in-depth training in five industry-standard tools: Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro, and Animate. Whether you are looking to enhance your creative skills or advance your career, this course is designed to prepare you for success. For those aiming to earn an Adobe Certified Professional certification, the curriculum is aligned with the requirements of each Adobe Certified Professional certification exam previously listed, ensuring you are fully equipped to achieve official recognition of your expertise. With a multi-faceted learning approach, you will encounter short explanations and demonstrations, hands-on exercises, video reviews, and quizzes throughout this course. Each module provides you with a comprehensive grasp of the software, from foundational elements to nuanced specifics that may be part of the certification exams.

This Adobe certified professional course also includes a series of independent projects to choose from that both give you a chance to apply and solidify what you have learned and give you tangible outcomes that can be added to your professional portfolio. For example, you can use Photoshop for branding, InDesign for brochures and reports, Illustrator for logos and posters, Animate for animations and banners, and Premiere Pro for show opening videos.

The hands-on projects serve a dual purpose: they deepen your understanding of each tool and provide you with practical experience that directly translates to workplace scenarios. Whether you are aiming for a career in design, marketing, video production, or any creative field, the Adobe Certified Professional course offers a structured learning path. The course also includes a voucher for the Adobe Certified Professional exams, offering you the chance to officially validate your skills.

By the end of this Adobe graphic design certification course, you will master Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Animate, becoming a well-rounded creative professional equipped with the tools and experience to excel in the creative industry.

Reviews

This course is pretty close to perfect. I really appreciated the amount of depth that went into each product.- Emma S.

The information was well taught. I appreciated that the class included several methods of teaching: text, video, and then the student completes the tasks. - Suzanne E.

Ed2go was a great way to learn! The hybrid format of reading information, video instructions to walk through the information, and having exercises to do throughout the course was a great combination! I've liked this format the best so far out of all my online learning experiences. - Kyra O.

The instructors were incredibly helpful anytime I needed to reach out. Everyone I interacted with during this process was terrific and the courses were easy to understand. Highly recommended! - Charles D.

I really enjoyed the programs used for the program. They were easy to use and effective for what I needed to work from home. - Justine L.

I felt the lessons were very thorough. The layering of written and video lessons added a lot of clarification. - Dorothy O.

Having been a graphic print designer and taking these classes to upgrade my skills after a long break, I believe my understanding of the programs is much better than when I graduated many years ago with a BA in Graphic Design. Web Design was more challenging for me because I had never learned it, but the online coursework, together with the ability to ask questions from the instructor whenever I needed to, clarified everything I needed to ace those courses as well.- Maril L.

I loved the videos that showed you what to do after you read the written directions. - Amanda K.

Very well-presented courses. I feel I learned a lot.- Gretchen R.

I really liked how the courses were laid out. It made them very easy to follow.- Robert P.
