This is a terrific, intensive introduction to Photoshop. The course instructor is responsive, and you can hold onto recordings of the class for 90 days to review your problem areas until your heart's content.
Eugenio is an outstanding instructor.
Amazing course! Definitely recommend
The materials were great, and I liked the opportunity to practice in class.
This class gave me the experience and confidence to begin playing with Photoshop as a tool for my work. I'm so glad the class was in person, and the price feels reasonable for the amount of skills / practice / attention you get.
My instructor was knowledgeable, thorough, and patient. He did not hesitate to assist me and make sure I stayed on track with the class. The book was also step-by-step and easy to follow.
Excellent class to get started in Photoshop.
Eugenio is the master of this art application. He knows all the resources of Photoshop, and he can assist with anything you have. I learned a lot in a short amount of time.
Overall, the class was an excellent introduction to Photoshop, and I would highly recommend it.
Photoshop is very complex. I think this class is a good introduction to what is possible to do with the software.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to learn Photoshop as a beginner or, better yet, to learn quick, efficient shortcuts and keys to improve your workflow. This course gives you a step-by-step guide, with an easy-to-follow professional instructor-based teaching system. In addition, hands-on exercises are provided with the workbooks given to each student at the beginning of the course. This is an excellent way to improve or learn new skills as techniques and trends change rapidly.
The Photoshop Bootcamp was very informative and so helpful with learning all the different aspects of the program.
I'm extremely satisfied with Eugenio's class and Noble Desktop. After 16 years of using Photoshop, I have discovered again new techniques with AI and other styles. As a result of the course, I have gained a lot of knowledge and skills. I enjoyed discovering new ways of realizing projects through Eugenio's clear and concise explanations. Eugenio's instruction has improved my abilities in general, and I am grateful for the quality of his instruction. I highly recommend their classes to anyone looking to enhance their skills in Photoshop or any other design software.
A really good introduction to Photoshop for me, as I have no graphics or art training whatsoever and need to design the content that I create. Great class, and our instructor was a pro with many years of experience and very patient!
Great introduction to the wide variety of Photoshop tools. The materials covered useful material for many commonly used projects and set up a great launching pad for more advanced uses. I wasn't sure what to expect from an all-day online class, but I was more than impressed. Class flowed well, breaks were consistent and well-spaced, and it didn't feel like the online vs. in-class students were different. Eugenio did a great job of balancing both. Looking forward to the rest of the Graphic Design Certificate classes.
I wasn't sure if taking this course would help me, but it did in many ways that I didn't think it would. The school has its own unique way of teaching courses and bootcamps. I've learned a lot from the bootcamps, and I have to say I enjoy learning from them.
If the purpose of Noble Desktop's Adobe Premiere Pro Bootcamp is to give novices with zero knowledge of content creation a sufficient boost to get up to speed as fast as possible on a highly complex video editing suite, then Noble Desktop's bootcamp goes a long way on that track. It's one thing to read any number of online tutorials; it's another thing to apply the lessons to do actual work (even if it's just the basics). The emphasis on the application of Premiere Pro functions to real-world editing scenarios was the most valuable.
This was an excellent course for anyone who is a beginner with Photoshop. The course is well-paced, and the instructor is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and answers all questions. This was truly a great experience for me, and I feel like I have really gained valuable techniques and information to put to use in my professional life.
This course provides a fantastic start to the use of Photoshop. You will learn new and amazing tricks!
The Photoshop Bootcamp at Noble Desktop is a great way for someone with familiarity of the software to gain extra skills and knowledge. It was a comprehensive overview of the tools and provided hands-on experience with related projects.
The class content was easy to understand and the exercises helped me understand Photoshop better. The instructor was nice and willing to listen. My experience in this class was very enjoyable, and I hope to continue it with Adobe Illustrator and the Graphic Design Portfolio Bootcamp.
Photoshop Advanced Retouching was exceptional, and I am eager to learn more from Eugenio at Noble Desktop.
Very pleased with this class and definitely looking into the other Photoshop classes. Perfectly paced, well-rounded information, and super fun! I'm happy that I choose to invest in myself by taking this class!
An immersive introduction to a crucial software in today's world!
If you think you sort of know Adobe Photoshop, this bootcamp gives you a usable map to really understand what it is you're working with.
