Training

Do you need to learn how to use new software? Maybe you don't want to (or don't have time to) work your way through a book or sign up for a long series of expensive evening classes that may not be any good?

The quickest way to learn new software is to be shown by someone who knows it well. I can design a training programme to suit your needs and train you on a one-to-one basis.

I'm a competent user of:

  • Photoshop and Image Ready
  • Fireworks
  • Dreamweaver
  • Flash
  • Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Access, Powerpoint, Publisher)
  • Open Office

...and can turn my hand to most new applications.

I also have a thorough knowledge of some of the background theory for best use of the software: web design theory, web accessibility and usability issues, writing for the web, use of colour for print and web, and image optimisation.

Online Tutorials

Perhaps you want to train many individuals in a new piece of software? An online tutorial may be the solution. I can design a web-based tutorial using Macromedia Captivate or Flash. See some samples:
