Virtual Classroom

A convenient and interactive learning experience, that enables you to attend one of our courses from the comfort of your own home or anywhere you can log on. We offer Virtual Classroom on selected live classroom courses where this will appear as an option under the location drop down if available. These can also be booked as Private Virtual Classrooms for exclusive business sessions.

Private

A private training session for your team. Groups can be of any size, at a location of your choice including our training centres.

This course will show you how expert social media content creators generate compelling posts that deliver engagement across social media.

We will start by looking at what kind of content needs creating and then using Adobe Illustrator to focus on setting up multiple social templates and producing vector assets. You will then concentrate on making animated GIFs using Adobe Photoshop and moving graphics with Adobe Xd.

You will be guided through document setup and asset management using CC Libraries to support your workflow, and will understand how to use the programs effectively to get the best results with minimum effort.

This is a hands-on course and after being shown how, you will have the opportunity to create graphics and be given reusable assets to do lab session challenges with tutor support.

After learning how to create great social media content we’ll explore how to publish your work; optimising it for a variety of social media platforms.

Our Social Media Content Creation training course is currently available online as a live Virtual Classroom, scheduled sessions or private events. We hope to soon be able to offer this course in person at our training centre in The Shard, London or privately at any location across the UK.
