Flu Season, COVID, and Our Classes

• At this time, masks are optional in the classroom, but should be considered as we move through flu season and a likely winter COVID surge.
• Fresh air is pulled into the classroom and recirculated air is filtered with multiple HEPA filters.

This site’s artisanal code is, like our curriculum, hand-crafted by us.

Adobe product classes are taught by Adobe Certified Instructors.

Awesome class. Instructor clearly has done this and used it. Additionally, instructor was organized and clear and fast-paced and fun without being pedantic, stuffy or dull. Able to go back when asked and answer questions with clarity. Thanks!!!!! Would recommend to all my friends.
