“I highly recommend taking classes with Noble Desktop. I got the lay of the land with InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator, as well as the basics of design theory. If you are looking for a teacher-led class rather than a pre-recorded curriculum this is a great way to go. My instructor was very well versed in every program and was patient enough to explain things until we all understood. Sign up now!”

“At first I was a skeptic of Nobledesktop do to the the low cost compared to those overly priced bootcamps. However once Instructor Menninga started teaching all my doubts went out the window. Besides the instructor(s) the registrar / administrative assistant(s) is amazing! I overslept during the first day of class and nearly missed out, surprisingly the administrative team contacted me via phone, not once but TWICE to ensure I attended class. I was so amazed how much they put into their students. So much so, that I would love to attend again someday. Thank you Amit! Don't think twice about joining, just do it. Best python bootcamp out there.”

I was looking for an online class with a live instructor, and this was exactly what I needed to get a good understanding and have confidence using the software at my workplace. I was shown so many solutions to things that were holding me back in Photoshop, and I'm excited to start using it now. ”

“It's interesting, normally when it comes to personalized attention and "extras" you only expect that kind of care from institutions that are more permanent school. You certainly don't expect it from a place that gives what essentially amounts to short/fast continuing education classes like Noble. Somehow though, they manage! Noble cares! It's quite a phenomena. It was as if I was in a 4 year school with professors who really cared about my success. Even outside of class. That's Commendable. I will continue to recommended Noble to others.”

“Noble Desktop's After Effects II class is a great way to advance you skills in this program. It is challenging, but their method of teaching allows you to advance at your own pace.

Zach, the owner of the program was tremendously supportive, informative and knowledgeable about the computer science world. He advised us on what courses to take and even spent the time interviewing my son to see which program would be the best fit. He was just so patient and helpful. My son has been coding for years, but there were many gaps, we learned. The two programs he did helped him realize his holes, filled them and propelled him to learn more deeply about CS and stay passionate. What more can a camp do! If you are looking for a serious, real-deal coding camp with strong, friendly instructors who can communicate and teach - NextGen is the best summer computer science camp in the NYC area.”

“Took the two day Financial Modeling Bootcamp. Extremely informative and useful. Smaller class size allows for one on one help and enables you to really understand the material you are working through. Additionally you build out a model on an actual company during the course, allowing you to perform the same kind of analysis you would use in a real office setting, as opposed to looking at generic accounting problems. Office itself is very nice, and the professors are extremely well informed. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to develop, sharpen, or reestablish their financial modeling skills.”

The class gave a very comprehensive overview into the philosophy and process of UX, showed real world UX case study examples and then had us apply the UX process to our own class project. In the end I built a working prototype of an app that was based on and informed by me conducting actual user interviews, personas, journey maps, etc. etc. It was a great experience to apply the UX process to building my app all while learning a new program—Sketch.

This was the first class I ever took for coding and I am so glad I did. I feel like I was able to learn a new skill fairly quickly and I love bragging about it. Truly a lovely place to begin chasing your dream of proving everyone wrong who said, “Coding is too hard. I tried and I couldn't do it so you probably won’t like it. You are gonna think it’s boring…” This class will automatically give you a sense of feeling superiority over others who were honestly just not smart enough to look up Noble Desktop.

The instructor introduced the program in such a way that it was easy to grasp and the exercises reinforced what we learned. I now feel comfortable in PowerPoint and confident that I can successfully create a deck from scratch.”

“I had a great experience in my level 2 Excel for business course. The instructor, Garfield, was very knowledgeable and patient with questions. He taught all the sections effectively and I really feel like I learned a lot from that one day session. NYIM has a really nice facility with modern computers (Macs too). The fact that they give you the chance to re-take a class free of charge within a year after the first one is amazing. I highly recommend their courses and will definitely be taking another class, or two!”

“Had an amazing experience taking Excel for Business Level 2 at NYIM. The excel class helped me get back up to speed on a ton of fundamental techniques and short cuts, and the instructor was awesome. They even gave us videos to look at after we finished the class for some extra help on our own time. The actual location was convenient and comfortable, they gave us coffee tea and chocolate- an overall great experience. Will definitely be going back for level 3.”

It is extremely useful to have access to the lessons and class files after the class is over. Each in-a-day class has saved me endless hours of trying to decipher confusing Youtube tutorials!”

“I really enjoyed the format of this class. It is taught in a way that just "clicks" with my learning style. Watching the instructor go through the lesson first and give extra tips to help solidify the information outside of what is written in the workbook is immeasurably helpful. While I came into the class familiar with the basics of HTML, the course helped to show the "why" behind the process. The instructors have been very knowledgeable and are readily available to answer questions or clarify the content. I would certainly recommend this course to anyone looking to learn HTML from the ground up. The hands on approach is just what is needed in this type of course.”

“Noble's iOS Development course has taken me from pure novice in code of any kind to about to publish my very own iOS app. I'd tried paid online courses, tutorials and books but it all ended in frustration. One reason being that the language Swift has been developing and changing so much that online wasn't keeping up. There's nothing like having a live coding expert in the same room. Noble finds excellent teachers (who are also patient with beginners) and is very generous with workbooks, downloadable materials and files in order to keep everything up to date. Taking this course was the best decision I've made in the last ten years..!”

For people like me that thought coding knowledge was the only thing needed to break into digital, this was a revelation. User testing and flows, journey maps, ideating, wireframing and prototyping are the true heart of web design.

After taking Noble's class I realize that when non-developers say it's easy that they are referring to Wordpress.com. Noble's class does much more. It teaches you how to give your custom front end website a backend so that non-developers can maintain your website without touching any code.”

“The After Effects I class was exactly what I hoped for and was super helpful. It's best to go in with some Photoshop and Illustrator knowledge, as well as some basic awareness of motion graphics applications such as how timelines function, editing terms, etc. But, depending on your aptitude for learning new programs, you would not necessarily need that knowledge, and the instructor is great at helping students each progress based on their individual level. I learned so much, and feel confident that I can now start on some basic AE projects. Looking forward to level II!”

“Noble lets you learn to code in a hands-on, practical way. The goal is for you to actually learn how to build websites and doesn't assume you have a team of people to do things for you. The content is extremely practical; it's not a test to screen out who should be admitted to MIT or not. They've spent over 20 years perfecting the course materials, and it shows. The materials become your reference manual that you can refer to as you implement upgrades to your own website. Don't waste your money elsewhere, this is the place to go. The owner and teachers are fully committed to your success. They allow repeats and host a Meetup for those in the program to get help and exchange ideas. Noble has your back, while other programs thank you for your money and forget you after their profits clear. Also, you can take the classes that you want to without being forced to take an entire bootcamp.”

“Take web development from Noble if you actually want to learn and to feel like you are learning. I took a part time front-end web dev course at a big name competitor first. The competitor's course left me feeling lost and overwhelmed because there were no notes or book. Noble gives you top-notch notes and has spent significant time setting up the exercises so you never get lost. The instructor actually knows how to teach and likes it and wasn't speeding through the material so he could leave early to go to his bunk bed start-up life, as in the class I took from the competition. Further - they have a massive screen so you can see what the instructor is doing rather than squinting and getting lost as I did in the competitor’s class. On top of all that, I feel extremely satisfied that I got my money's worth because I can practice the lessons again because there is a book. AND if I want to see a lesson again, I'm allowed to come back and watch again. I don't think I'll need to repeat anything BUT I am super happy that is an option. These guys run a good ,fair business. They treat you well and you actually learn. Forget the rest, Noble will make you successful.”

Their class format is see and do; they explain an exercise step by step then have you complete it and are there to help you if you get stuck. I found the hands-on approach very effective. The exercises are modular and build on previous ones and every time you complete one you've made something happen that you didn't know how to do 30 minutes ago. That's a great feeling and helps keep you engaged in what you're learning. Piece by piece you're building practical skills that you can apply immediately.”

The second certificate built onto the first, and added a 30-hour back-end web development program which included PHP, MySQL, and WordPress. I learned tons, and the teachers were excellent. The course books are such a valuable tool to use with my projects. I was able to code a WordPress theme from scratch, and was even asked to speak at this past summer’s Wordcamp NYC. The instructors know their stuff, and really make learning fun. Nothing is rushed, and they take time to answer all questions.

“Not knowing anything about HTML/CSS, I found this class so informative. There was just the right amount of instruction without it ever feeling overwhelming. The instructor was fantastic. She was extremely articulate and explained things so clearly that I really felt like I could truly tackle web development. I feel that I now have a good solid base of knowledge in HTML/CSS and am excited at the idea of moving onto the next level.”

“The class was a great introduction to HTML and CSS! I had a little background knowledge going in, but I definitely feel like I have a better understanding of WHY you do certain things and the logic behind the code. It was beginner-friendly and taught practical skills that I can already use. After going home on the last day, I was able to update the navigation on my company's website and add a new page that fit the rest of the website's styling. I could even make it mobile compatible! If I'd tried this a week ago, I probably would've crashed the whole site.”

“Noble’s iOS Bootcamp helped me take my skills to the next level! I have always wanted to learn Swift, but was not able to learn by only using online resources. The teacher helped me understand the logic behind object-oriented programming. It was a challenging class, but I felt so accomplished after I finished. I would definitely recommend it to anyone and would even take it again myself!”

“My instructor was the best! I appreciate that she stayed on topic and lead the class. We were focused on the subject and moved on together while still being able to go at our own pace. She answered all our questions with enthusiasm and taught us as beginners using terms at a speed we could grasp the concept at. I also appreciate that she used the screen to zoom in and then back to make sure we saw where the palettes where and what they were doing. It can be overwhelming to look at a screen with a million palettes and listen to someone talk at the same time. Our teacher handled it very well.”

“Kalika was an excellent instructor. Her enthusiasm and passion for After Effects was contagious. She was patient, smart, and funny. She brought a much needed lightness and humor to a difficult subject. When I began to feel overwhelmed, Kalika was hands-on with helping me. She was genuinely interested in teaching us what we wanted to know. We followed the instruction booklet but it was not forced upon us—we went at our own pace and was able to spend the last class practicing our own project ideas. I left my three-day Noble Desktop experience feeling inspired and excited to continue my After Effects learning journey. I intend on using my new knowledge to make personal art as well as enhance my day-job work as a graphic designer in higher education. I cannot speak highly enough of Kalika. She was truly a pleasure.”

“I've taken 4 or 5 classes at Noble Desktop, and all have been great! I've recommended them to friends and coworkers, and will continue to do so. I like that the classes are easily digestible, while still covering a lot of material. They also do a good job of explaining the fundamentals, so you understand what you are doing and why. I feel a lot of courses give a list of instructions on how to do different things within a program, but without understanding fundamentally why you're doing each step, it is hard to apply those concepts to future projects outside the classroom.”

After three days of digging in, I have to say I'm very excited about learning as much as I can about coding and designing for the screen.

Simply put the Photoshop for Web Design & UI course material is directly in line with the subject. There was much that I learned that I wished I had known about before for my own projects. I found the course's "real world" scenarios/examples to be very educational. The course's instructor Ethan was masterful.”

She explained concepts extremely well, was nurturing, always available for assistance, answered every question fully, and was genuinely concerned for her student's welfare. This was really touching. I will never forget the experience I had in her Visual Design for Web and Mobile class. It was unforgettable and very very beneficial for someone who was shaky about their graphic designs.

“RAVE REVIEW! Fun AND hugely informative workshop. The course covered a huge range of information, all of it really helpful. From the basics of exposure and lenses to extras like advice on organizing your workflow, camera equipment, and web resources, Ben Russell explained it all beautifully. Digital photography can be really complicated, but he gives you everything you need to dive in and get good shots. He did a great job of making everyone feel at ease — very engaging, funny, and has total knowledge of the material. It was well worth the cost of the class. Now I have the background framework to add more in-depth learning on my own.”

Not only was she extremely knowledgeable but her teaching style was cutting edge. She engaged the entire class and made great efforts to make sure each and every student pushed themselves and maximized every class moment. I was particularly amazed by the consistency in energy Cathline maintained from start to finish in what was quite a long class. The syllabus fit a ton of information in three days. I truly walked away with a great understanding of HTML & CSS coding.”

“Michele was an excellent instructor! Her teaching style was very effective. She was organized, succinct, clear and informative. Her words were directed and concise (no rambling). Michele's teaching style helped me to focus and absorb a maximum of information with no distractions. She even optimized the learning environment by being consistent in dimming the lights for demonstrations, and raising them when we were doing workbook exercises. Michelle was also consistent in alerting us of what information was in the workbook and what wasn't. Overall, she made it so easy to learn a difficult program. I really enjoyed the class thanks to Michele's capable instruction.”

“Noble Desktop is a well-oiled machine! My skills had become very rusty with Photoshop Elements. My one day Photoshop Elements 11 class was just right for me. The watch-first-then-do format kept class time smoother I think. Michele was a very good instructor. She explained things clearly and managed the time well. I have a very well organized workbook from the class to use at home to practice. I will definitely take another class with Noble Desktop.”

They are really, really well written and cover the subject matter brilliantly. All of the instructors I have taken classes with were wonderful and experts on their subject. I thought at first that the free seminars were just devices to trick people into paying for classes at Noble, but having taken the free seminars, I don't think that is true. The atmosphere at Noble is great. The people are fabulous. And, also, there's a very good reason why Noble built such a spectacular business on word of mouth alone. Noble Desktop ROCKS!!”

“I had to learn Dreamweaver in a 'trial by fire' method for a graduate digital design course... I learned enough to get by - but taking the class at Noble, it allowed me the opportunity to really understand how Dreamweaver works, how to code with HTML and the advantages of CSS. At the conclusion of the first class I signed up for the next level.. and I'm now very interested in pursuing the Certificate in Web Design. Digital design is the future of graphic design and I'd like to be prepared.”

“I was definitely concerned about whether I'd be able to keep up with a three-day introductory course in Dreamweaver (especially because I wasn't even sure what Dreamweaver did, and had never heard of CSS before), but after my very positive experience with your InDesign course, I had a general level of trust in Noble. My instructor for Dreamweaver Level I (Victoria) was excellent, and worked magic in three days. She gave me a great foundation on which to build, and has such an enthusiasm for the subject that I now aspire to becoming a CSS guru... now that I know what it is.”

“A fantastic class! The Dreamweaver class I took at Noble Desktop was really rewarding and provided true value for money. The course material was sensibly and professionally well thought out and very efficiently put together. The instructor Victoria Torres is amazing. Victoria is extremely knowledgable and very professionally polished, yet she can be quite humorous and certainly had the class in stitches at times. I feel now that I have a better understanding the basic concept of Dreamweaver's structure as it relates to how it can be used to build and manage websites. A great class! Thank you very much, Noble Desktop.”

“I absolutely loved this class! I had no Illustrator experience going in and now I feel like an Illustrator ninja. Ethan, the instructor, moved quickly enough for those of us already experienced with other Adobe products, but explained everything so clearly that I think even a straight-up beginner would be able to follow along with no problems.”

“PHP & MySQL is a great introductory class. Jeremy skillfully guided the students through the PHP syntax, SQL statements, database, form validation, and setting up the server.

The teacher had a fantastic command of the material, and was good at keeping us on task and moving us through the material. In the past I have gotten "lost" in other classes, having to catch up, with missed information. This did not happen, because he was constantly telling us where to look, what page we were on, and had a keen sense of what issues were going to be problematic. So he addressed them, spot on. He was funny, too!”

“Before taking the course at Noble I knew nothing about Dreamweaver. It was an intensive course with a lot of material to learn and absorb in 3 days but the class structure and comprehensive instruction put everything into perspective for me. Progressive guided lessons with corresponding independent exercises provided clear understanding of the many facets involved in building an active web site, from start to finish. The instructor, an extremely knowledgeable working professional in the field, presented new material with concise explanations, eagerly addressed questions, and conscientiously circulated the room offering assistance during independent activities. After taking the course I had a solid foundation and working knowledge of Dreamweaver. Practice makes perfect and Noble provides for that by issuing a training manual with class files CD so you can practice at home. Don’t have the program? With your class receipt Noble also can hook you up with a discounted student version. Didn’t quite get the gist of a particular step or lesson? Noble will find room for you to sit in during the next available class so you can get it straightened out. Unlike many higher learning or vocational institutions that herd students in and out of their facilities, Noble Desktop is a small professional organization that puts its reputation on the line with each student seeking computer graphics training with them. I’m certain you will be more than satisfied with instruction, instructors, and administration at Noble... I definitely am and have registered for two more courses!”

“Overall, I'm always amazed at the talent of your instructors and comprehensiveness of your course materials. I thoroughly enjoy the theory/academic material, but mostly I'm impressed by your emphasis on translating these tools to real-world, practical applications. I took a PHP class with a different company, and only then did I realize exactly how well your courses are put together. They covered all the theory, but when it came to going back to the workplace to apply those skills, I realized they hardly covered any real-world applications of it. I basically had to re-teach myself all the information when it came to applying it to actual real-world applications. This is why your company will always be my first choice when looking for continuing education classes.”

I can see course materials being useful reference as I implement, and the instructor was great with any particular questions the class had as we went along. Well worth it! The materials you complete in course are presented in simple, logical terms and steps. Before you know it, you've built simple stuff into more complex stuff and haven't broken a sweat. But trust me, you're given as much as you can handle in a few days' time!”

“The HTML email class showed me how I can accomplish elegant newsletters by going back to basics. In the era of CSS3 and HTML5 who will still use tables for layout design? Or use HTML old presentation properties to apply different color or height to a background? Well, in this class I found that the old HTML features are the modern tools for setting up and sending HTML newsletters in the email.”

I took the Dreamweaver Intensive program, and since then I have attended almost all of the free seminars on all sorts of topics. As a result I committed myself to learning other Adobe programs, and I just finished the Dreamweaver Interactive and Flash Advanced class. Both blew me away! When I was laid off recently a door closed, but I feel that a new one may have just opened thanks to you.”

“I've never seen any instructor so eager to channel his knowledge and expertise in layman's terms with genuine, child-like enthusiasm. I liked the way he took time to help and explain things, not rushing through just so he could get to the next person with a question. He has a keen sense to read our puzzled look when the first answer didn't hit home, by triggering our mind to think another way for the light bulb to lit. I rarely dare to retouch a photo -- no matter how bad it was. After this class, I feel comfortable in tackling poor images and making them look better.”

“Early this year I got an email from one of my headhunters, who basically said: "... the print jobs that have been eliminated are probably NOT coming back." We were told that we needed to update our skills to include web design. So I begrudgingly took the advice and signed up for Dreamweaver and Flash at Noble Desktop. Their 3-day intensive courses were just what I needed! I didn't have the time to waste taking a semester-long class with a teacher and/or curriculum that may or may not have been any good. At Noble Desktop, the teachers are screened and they are top-rate... and they actually LOVE teaching! Noble Desktop's method of teaching the computer programs uses real-world scenarios — there is no time wasted on stuff you don't need, nor on rhetoric or theory that is useless. The material is relevant and current, and they teach it in a way that is logical, and easy to grasp. They test their lessons over and over and constantly update the classes and workbooks. After taking these 2 classes, I feel that now I can send out my resume with my new web skills added, with confidence! Yes, their classes seem expensive, but no more than any other art school here in New York City, and you get the skills you need in just 3 days! So — since your time is money, you come out way ahead of the game! Thank you Noble Desktop. You are one of the absolute BEST schools in the country.”

“I'm primarily a photographer and graphic designer and have recently added moving images (video) to my repertoire. I needed to learn Final Cut Pro but was a bit intimidated by it. The FCP class at Noble Desktop was really user-friendly, and totally eliminated my fears of the program. After just 3 days I feel that I have enough knowledge of the program that I can get out there and shoot, edit, and make DVDs and (music) videos for the web!!! Thank you Noble Desktop. You are a top-rate school, and your teachers are the best! I attended many semester-long classes at other art and design schools, the majority were taught by third-rate teachers and the classes were boring and just dragged on and on. YOUR classes were right on the money. You showed us the nuts-and-bolts of the program in an easy-to-grasp manner. Your intensive classes are perfect for the working professional who doesn't have time to attend a semester-long class. I did not have to go through a lot of red-tape to register for the class, either. The sign-up process was quick and easy. Someone answered the phone every time I called and responded to my questions in a positive and professional manner. And I even got a signed "certificate" to show that I took the class! How cool is that!”

“For anyone into photography who fiddles around (incorrectly!) in Photoshop, this class is a must. I learned lots of time-saving tricks and cool processes that instantly revolutionized the way I edit photos -- and use Photoshop in general. If I had only learned one of these things, this class would've been worth it -- but I learned so many! The instructor solidly knew her material, presented it well, was patient and friendly with the students, always asked if there were questions, answered every question -- and researched those she didn't know during breaks and got back to the class with the answer. The course workbook is clear, comprehensive, and well laid-out. The text used is in a conversational tone, capturing the nuances of a one-on-one in-person training even when you're done with the class. The course itself is designed to begin each segment with a detailed demonstration by the instructor, followed by the student doing a hands-on exercise at the computer (provided by the company) to practice what they just learned. Further demos/exercises build upon the earlier exercises so you can get a better handle on them. I couldn't wait to get home to launch Photoshop and get to work on my own stuff! Thank you, Noble Desktop!”

The Advanced Dreamweaver Class opened up new doors to better design techniques for web and most importantly my mindset is looking at the web in CSS vision. Whoa! Think CSS, build with CSS, integrate CSS in the beginning and help the future of your web site. Perhaps CSS is the "greening" of the world wide web? Go Dan!”

And for an audience who can read at a high school level, the handouts and CD of example files of the exercises covered in class, are the best I have ever seen. If you want a class without much theory, that is 100% practical and that will make you feel empowered and excited about using the software being taught, Noble Desktop is the best school!”

“Having no direct experience in the web design business other than being an office manager for a digital advertising company, I was quite nervous about taking ‘The Big 3 Web’ and being able to keep up. After the first day of classes I fell into the swing of things. I would leave each session feeling empowered that I could actually become a web developer/designer. I absolutely loved it and Victoria - our instructor - was very patient and encouraging. If it's possible to be addicted to taking classes I would have to say I'm there! More free seminars here I come :0) Noble Desktop, you rock!!!”

“The InDesign class was very helpful and quickly brings you up to speed even if you have no prior experience...I say that coming from an IT background and no graphic design experience. Ethan is a great teacher and really knows his stuff. The class covered all the basics and the hands on exercises were perfect in reinforcing what our instructor was showing in class. Ethan took the time to go over specific things not included in the syllabus but the class had an interest in. I would definitely recommend this class...I am kicking myself for not taking the class earlier and making life easy. ”

“I am so happy I finally took a web class at Noble Desktop. I've put off learning web design programs for 4 years and just getting by with the little knowledge of hand-coding and HTML that I knew. However, now with Dreamweaver CS3 there has been no better time to catch up with the web world and quickly and effectively make my own websites and start creating them for others on a larger scale, professionally. Noble made the learning so easy by optimizing their computer set-up paying attention to every detail to make the best learning environment. The Dreamweaver class was clever, pace was good, fast computers and all the latest software. Hands-on training is the best method for learning. Good job, Noble.”

I went in with lots of questions and many bad habits trying to use this new program, and have walked out confident and able to tackle my design work with speed and a new perspective. I now plan on taking other classes.”

One day after my class ended I was already knee-deep in creating my first website. I will absolutely be taking more classes as the need for more advanced techniques arises and have already recommended the HTML/Dreamweaver Comprehensive to friends who are interested in learning website creation fast, efficiently and effectively.

“I really wasn't really expecting much from the class when I signed up- just to learn the basics of the program. Instead, I feel like I walked away with a very good understanding of the how the program works and how to use it effectively. I also thought that I would be bored to tears by 3 days of computer classes (usually not my cup of tea), but the lesson structure was extremely well set up and the instructor Ethan made it fun and engaging and time really flew by! Hopefully I'll have a chance to take another class in the future.”

Because of which, I now have a clear understanding of both the application, Dreamweaver and technology, HTML. I came away from the class empowered!”

She knew Photoshop inside and out; knew the feature differences between CS, CS2, and CS3. I don’t believe anything was asked in class that she was not able to answer. She paced the class well (DIDN'T rush through the exercises so that we (she) could get out early) and provided good info and examples that were above and beyond what was in the training material; good information about color correction and file types, etc. I would absolutely take another class of hers.”

“This is the second time that I have been to a Noble Desktop class and I can't wait to come back for yet another class. I was sent by my job (Prudential) and my whole department raved about Noble before I came - and now I see why. I feel the instructors' approach is very practical and they left me with a strong foundation on which I can expand and learn more. I believe Noble is so successful because of their real commitment to education and helping people understand and apply what they learn. I was really impressed when I was leaving my Photoshop class on the last day and the instructor was giving away his phone number to a student who needed more help developing his personal/business website - it seems that you come to Noble to just "take a class" but you leave with friends that are willing and committed to help you long-term.”

“I approach software classes as paying somebody to read the directions to me out loud, since I don't have the patience to read the book myself. I also want someone who has already figured out which parts of the software program I need and skips the rest. Noble Desktop is perfect for this. I have taken two classes -- 10 years apart -- and both delivered the goods. The curriculum was comprehensive, well-organized, precisely targeted to its stated audience and professionally delivered. The handbook was a bonus. It is well-designed, including the examples (no small issue to a graphic designer), well-written (no small issue to a literate graphic designer) and carefully typeset (no small issue now that we're all typesetters, too!). Yes, I did read that book!”

This could easily be a recipe for disaster. Instead, Victoria took the material and walked us through it like only a really great teacher can. Even thought there were probably 20 people in the class, she provided individual attention and was truly motivating. I would definitely take a course at Noble again and I would recommend Noble--and especially Victoria--to anyone.”

“The Quark to InDesign class was just amazing -- Dan is a very talented teacher: quick, enthusiastic, friendly... Covered all the basics and more (including the style sheets, master pages, complex find/replaces). This is the perfect class for the seasoned Quark user who fears InDesign... I was converted by lunchtime the first day. Dan knows Quark inside-out and backwards, and was able compare and contrast the logic of the two programs -- a total expert who speaks plainly and succinctly. I'm so impressed, I really want to take more courses at Noble Desktop now.”

“I like Noble's format. The demonstrations let you see what you can do, and the exercises that follow each one let you do it, while it's fresh in your mind.

“The instructor for the course was excellent. She was a professional who obviously has worked on websites for many years, and has a variety of clients who like her work. She was also had an ability to understand the problems faced by newbies and to explain exactly what she means. This is an unusual quality for a techie. Her speech and enunciation were clear and her spoken sentences grammatical. She was also exceedingly polite and respectful to every student. These qualities are not what one would ordinarily expect in a trade school. I had previously taken an HTML course at NYU night school, and the Noble instructor was far superior to the NYU instructor. The equipment for use in the class was state-of-the-art and well-maintained. There were none of the usual glitches one finds when using equipment at a school. There were no restrictions on the use of the equipment--if you wanted to check your e-mail, you were free to do so. The teaching method is uniquely Noble's--during the lecture, you listen and do not follow along (although you may follow along on computer if you choose to do so). After each lecture (about 1/2 hour to one hour per lecture), you do exercises from the workbook, under the guidance of the instructor. The method is quite satisfying, and works very well.”

“This is the FIRST course I have ever taken when I didn't feel "left behind" when TRYING TO FOLLOW on my computer what the instructor had just covered in front of the students and on screen. Make a mistake or error and try to correct yourself, suddenly the instructor is on to the NEXT area, and then the NEXT, and I'm still in "catch-up mode". This way of instruction does not work for me, and it's a very unsatisfactory learning experience! YOUR TEACHING METHOD is great, and it worked for ME! Sit there, listen to, and watch the instructor go over the next area step-by-step. THEN, with the Training Manual in hand, work on the same exercise AT YOUR OWN PACE and do it correctly. Make a mistake or error, correct yourself OR ask for help, and NOT WORRY you're missing the instructor's NEXT step.”

“The instructor was articulate and patient. They way the class is taught, with the exercise first being explained by the instructor, then having the students do the same exercise is smart. The step by step instruction booklet given to students is well written. All in all an excellent experience. If this is the standard of all of the Noble Desktop courses I would recommend them to anyone interested in desktop design and publishing.”

“As a web content producer and manager of graphic designers, I decided to take a class so I can have a better understand of the software, the terms and the realities of PhotoShop. After the first class I felt that I had a much stronger understanding of terms I had been using for years (and somewhat incorrectly at times) and left the class with a understanding of how so many things are done in photoshop. I felt like the class exercises were the exact right amount of practice for every new skill learned and the 3 week classes of three hours a night twice a week was just the right amount of time to power through and not feel like I had given up my life. I thought the entire experience was fantastic, the instructor was awesome and easy to understand and I have so much knowledge that I didn't have last month. If you want a shortcut into learning a program this is really the best experience I could recommend.”

“The class was very thorough and I was surprised that the instructor was never stumped on a question I had that was not in the book - you could tell he knew the program well. If there is anyone who is tired of taking classes from instructors who cannot deviate from a "how to" book, I would recommend Noble because they know the application and they know how to teach it!”

“The Noble Desktop class I took -- Quark to InDesign -- was very comprehensive and I felt that the instructor did a fantastic job fielding everyones questions. Scott Carson dealt with the frustrations of students of lower (and higher) ability levels very well. I feel ready to switch to InDesign today!”
