Requirements: 

You have good PC user skills (PC or Mac). Basic knowledge of Adobe InDesign is recommended for participation in this course. 

 

Note on the use of Adobe Creative Cloud in training:

In this course, you will learn how to use the Adobe Creative Cloud software through many practical exercises. In order to participate, you must have the Adobe Creative Cloud software installed on your computer. Unfortunately, Adobe does not offer a way for us to provide you with a license. It is therefore necessary that you have your own Adobe Creative Cloud license.

 

If you don't have your own license, you can easily purchase one on the Adobe website. There are various subscriptions for the Adobe Creative Cloud, which can be canceled annually or monthly. Adobe also offers a 14-day trial period during which you can cancel your subscription free of charge. If you use this option, you will not incur any costs.

 

Installing the software involves downloading a large data package. We therefore recommend carrying out the installation before training . If you encounter IT guidelines during installation on a company computer, please contact your system administrator. If there is no other option, we recommend that you use a private computer for the exercises instead.

 

Please also note that Adobe Creative Cloud takes up a lot of space on your screen. If you are attending the course with a laptop, it is therefore helpful to also connect an external monitor.

 

Your benefit
  • Structured and goal-oriented layout with InDesign
  • Confident and independent working with InDesign
  • Get to know new design possibilities with Creative Cloud and InDesign
  • Creating sophisticated documents such as brochures, flyers or other multi-page printed matter
