A fantastic four days! I went on the InDesign 101 and Photoshop 101 course and had a good time, learning new emulation (which would have saved me hours if I had have known before!!) excellent staff and instructors, great facilities and ideal locality. Looking forward to Illustrator 101 in January.

I was exceptionally satisfied with the learning given by Academy Class. The tutor of the course and the knowledge he possessed was motivational for students. I truly appreciated his expertise within the Adobe InDesign and all the help provided. About the centre, it was clean, crisp and has a functional area for working. Many professionals have used this course and they all were students again, because of the information they had to take in. Overall, I am happy indeed.
