Photoshop is arguably the most popular Windows business software not made by Microsoft, so using it for the first time can be a bit like traveling to another continent. This course teaches you how to use Adobe Systems’ general set-up for Windows programs as well as the basics of photo editing in Photoshop. By the end of this two-day course you’ll know what can be done to turn your photographs into what you need for your projects.

Course Prerequisite: Knowledge of basic Windows use and ability to use keyboard and mouse.
