Master the tricks of the design trade – Learn InDesign with our 1 day or 3 day InDesign Course

Adobe Indesign courses on the Gold Coast, recommended for all Gold Coast and Brisbane residents. Adobe CC (Creative Cloud) InDesign is a page layout tool, it lets you bring in logos, images, graphics, videos and place them onto a page precisely. These courses are designed to get you started fast, if you want more in-depth knowledge of InDesign you are best to look at our Essentials of  InDesign (3 Day) course or if you want a short introduction to InDesign have a look at our 1 Day course.

Indesign is the most popular program in the world for creating page based documents like:

• Annual Reports
• Web Graphics
• Brochures
• Creating Presentations
• Creating Proposals

• Flyers
• Magazines
• Books
• Newspaper Ads
• Articles

You can create these documents in other programs like illustrator or Photoshop but it’s not as efficient or productive as you would if you used Indesign. Today’s version of Indesign can let you create a wide variety of digital publications. In the past it was only used for print, but today you can also produce, reflowing EPubs, fixed layouts and web documents that can be viewed in a browser plus many other interactive features.
