Photoshop ACA Overview

adobe indesign

After two decades, Adobe Photoshop is still the industry standard image editing software, used worldwide by photographers, marketeers and creative designers who want to perfect their digital images by going beyond what is captured by the camera.

With the Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) certification, you gain the ability to prove your skills in a digital world. The Adobe certification is an industry-recognised certification that demonstrates that you have the skills required on the job. Proficiency in Adobe Photoshop is one of today's most sought after skills in the job market.

Our Adobe Certified Associate Photoshop preparation training aims to give you the confidence to prepare for the official ACA exam. As a certified testing centre you can sit the exam with us, as soon as you feel that you are ready.

All the skills needed to pass the Adobe Certified Associate exam will be discussed during the Photoshop exam preparation training session.

This package provides you with a day of Photoshop training on subjects related to the ACA exam. On the second day, you will also have an opportunity to sit practise exams and discuss any Photoshop questions you may still have with your trainer before finally sitting the ACA exam.

Important: If you feel that you need a little more time to prepare for your exam, you have the option to delay the taking of the exam until a later date.

Course Outcomes

At the end of the training session, students will be able to use Photoshop to manuipulate images and be able to :

  • Understand Adobe Photoshop
  • Manipulate images
  • Be prepared to sit the ACA exam
  • Understand the Exam requirements

Course Requirements

To attend the Photoshop ACA Exam Prep training you should already have good experience with Photoshop and ideally be working with it on a day to day basis. If you are not confident using Photoshop, you may wish to consider attending the four day Photoshop ACA training course instead.

If you wish to attend our Photoshop training, but do not wish to study for the Adobe Certified Associate certification, then we also offer the Introduction to Photoshop as an alternative option.

Course Description

Our Adobe Certified Associate exam preparation sessions will talk you through the requirements to pass the ACA Exam and highlight skills that may be tested during your exam.

During the session, you will be provided with the opportunity to sit up to three practise exams to help you build your confidence and become familiar with the testing process.

Once you are ready and all of your Photoshop questions have been answered by the trainer, you will be able to sit the exam and hopefully walk away with your Adobe Certified Associate certification.
