Engaging teacher. Thorough explanations. Easy to follow along. My one-day Premier Pro editing basics course was a great introduction to the software. Now to put everything into practice! I'd highly recommend this course and can only imagine their others are as good.

Fabulous course - amazing instructor; a really good set up. The class sizes are small, the trainers know their stuff, and, although you follow a fairly comprehensive training manual, there is scope to ask questions, discuss unique issues and get some general tips and tricks as well. Well paced, well presented.
And, (if there is space in the class) you can go back and sit a refresher course within 6 months of completing the original course - that is very handy!
I have completed two courses with City Desktop over the last year, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Premier Pro CC. I found the trainers and the material covered absolutely practical. Both times I have left the training with the knowledge and skills to get straight to work in the office and produce quality work. Thank you, I've just booked in for an Indesign course so I'll see you again next month!
I recently completed the Insdesign Essentials course. David our teacher was fantastic, Couldn't of asked for a better suited person for this course! Wasn't a moment where i was not engaged with what we were learning his knowledge in all aspects of design was so helpful.
I Walked away with so much more knowledge and understanding and already putting all the practices in place.

David was a fantastic trainer - so knowledgeable, and an excellent facilitator. As well as being extremely relevant, practical and well presented, the sessions were also fun, and relaxed. The workbook is fantastic, as were the examples we worked on over the two days. Can't wait to go back to the office and apply everything I have learnt!

Fantastic Training and Venue!
The training was fantastic! I came into the course knowing nothing about Indesign but found myself picking up the navigation and really enjoyed what I was learning. The trainer Adrian took the time to check in with all students in the class - he knew when I was struggling and gave me quick easy guidance to help. The tasks we completed were very professional making it very easy to imagine working on the software on a daily basis. I would recommend and I have since looked into future courses.
