Adobe Photoshop Beginner’s Course

We have developed for you an interactive course for working with the program-superstar in design - Adobe Photoshop.

Introduction. Highlights of the course

How to choose from the many Photoshop courses that take place online, or in person? With a little history, a little advice for your independent work and a lot of research, we developed the training material in the course. For your convenience, the high-volume exercises are illustrated with numerous screenshots. Each exercise has a video attached with which you can follow the steps in the lesson.

Learning objectives

The aim of the course is to prepare the novice user to create images using Adobe Photoshop. In preparing the training material for the Photoshop course online, we paid attention to the needs of those learners who want to learn to work with this program quickly.

This course is entirely online. We also prepared a Practical Exam for the course. When it is created, students send their work files to our team for feedback. The Final Test with theoretical questions, the assessment is automatic, and learners can see their result at the end of the test. The test can be passed again, counting the last number of points scored.

At the beginning of the First Module we have separated the lecture material for introduction to the program.

In the modules of this online course, you will learn how to cut an object from its background, crop an image to a certain size, apply filters, create a brush and much more.

Use the files for self-preparation and follow the exercises with us!

In the course, you have downloadable files - images, text files. Download them to follow the exercises as well as for self-preparation.

Each lesson has steps to follow. Before the exercises, the course has a separate lecture part with images on the screen with the functions of the program with which we will work.
