Introduction to Adobe Photoshop

Duration: Two-day course
Dates: Sat 25 Apr 12:00 - Sun 26 Apr 2026 17:00
Location: Digital Suite

Photoshop is made easy in this weekend course. 

Using our computers (or your own laptop if you prefer) you will use the most well known photo-editing software, Adobe Photoshop, to adjust and improve your images.  You will learn how to use the programme tools, menus, and functions, to colour correct, adjust tone, clone and remove small objects, add text, understand and use layers and selections. Photoshop can also be used for drawing and painting in a digital workspace.

Informative and well constructed class.

Excellent pupil to lecturer ratio. Very good teaching style.
