Since it burst on to the scene back in 1990, Adobe Photoshop has become the king of the pixel. In terms of what you can do to an image Photoshop has no equal.
Such raw power, however, has seen Photoshop grow into a great big hairy beast of a program. These days, it is difficult for a beginner to know where to start when faced with the thousands of features and tools that the program has to offer. That’s where we come in.
This Photoshop training course will give you a solid grounding in the program. You'll learn how to do amazing things with brushes, how to make seemingly impossible selections with incredible ease. And how to turn drab and boring images into something that would grace the cover of any magazine.
In our capable hands you’ll be taken through a series of step-by-step exercises designed to polish your skills. In only two days you will be able to amaze yourself and your work colleagues with just how much you can do with this fabulous program.
If you’re interested in a first-hand view of this Photoshop course, please click on the banner below and read what our clients have to say .
We usually conduct our Photoshop training in our comfortable London offices but we’re happy to come to you if this is what you prefer. (If there is more than one of you wishing to attend this course, we also offer substantial discounts for bulk bookings.)

"The course was absolutely brilliant - I can't wait to start my new job and get the chance to try everything out! I have just taught my colleague your blue sky technique and she can't believe how much easier it makes the process."

"Just a little note to say thanks very much for training us on Photoshop over the last two days. Anna and I really enjoyed learning about Photoshop and found the course extremely well structured and easy to follow. Of particular interest was the tutorials on layers, masks, altering hue/saturation and levels, and I loved learning how to airbrush and improve portrait shots. The brush tool was a revelation and my personal photos will never look dull again – it’ll also come in handy at work too!"

"The training was tailored around the things I needed to learn which was immensely helpful, and I was able to learn an incredible amount in a short space of time due to the interactive exercises and well structured course content."

"Friendly, experienced and insightful hands-on training. Visual too, just the way I like it! Unique in that they not only focus on the best that the software has to offer, they also point out the redundant and ridiculous too. A very worthwhile experience. Oh, the claims about great food? All true!"

"I have to write and thank for the excellent training I received on your QuarkXpress course this week. Having started as a complete beginner I was amazed that the day following the course I was able to put together two pieces of work in Quark – a real achievement for me as I have never used any kind of publishing software before.
The trainer was extremely knowledgeable and patient and we felt free to ask questions at any time. I now look forward to using my new skills which, to be honest, have already
enhanced the services I can offer to clients."

"Although the course was fast paced and comprehensive, the trainer ensured no-one was left behind. His extensive knowlege and limitless patience combined with friendly good humour made for two very enjoyable and worthwhile days. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Europa Training. "

"This course was just what I was looking for. The trainer was so approachable; no question was too big or small, and he kept us smiling from start to finish! I am excited to get back to the office and put my newly gained skills into practice. Lunch was yummy, too."
