If you've waded into Photoshop alone and need some help getting out of certain weedy areas, this course will set you on the right path. Excellent coverage of fundamentals and non-intuitive functions will pique your interest to take the extended class.

I learned a lot in the class. Eugenio is a fine teacher. I recommend it to anyone interested in editing photos. I work with many old family photos and enjoy touching them up and inserting them into family videos. The family really enjoys the results. Thanks Noble Desktop.

Photoshop in a Day is an apt title. You learn all the basics you need to start experimenting on your own!

This is a great introduction (and more!) to Photoshop. I like how we watched the instructor and then had exercises in between each lesson to practice what we learned, so we can get familiar with it. The course is good for anyone with a little bit to no experience. Thank you!

It is just the right amount of material to learn in a Photoshop class, and I like the broad application that was demonstrated. Eugenio's depth of his experience comes through so brilliantly in his instruction. He presented the tools and lessons at a reasonable pace and demonstrates that retouching is an art and a craft, not just about having technical proficiency. It was such a pleasure taking the class. He is an excellent instructor!
