Highly Informative Course
I wanted to study Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, when I came across this course offered by 1training. It was everything I was looking for to master digital photography. I learned image editing techniques which I can apply in my work once I return to my job as a web designer. I also recommend this highly informative course to other web designers.
A wonderful and worthwhile course in Photoshop Lightroom. The modules were very comprehensive and included everything I was looking for in a course. Using image library, making local corrections, making global corrections, external editing and many more have been amply discussed!
BEST COURSE EVER
Course materials were good, the mentoring approach was good, and working with online portal via the Internet was good. The instructor did a good job.
