Overview
Our Premiere Masterclass is aimed at those with none, limited or an intermediate knowledge of Premiere. Rather than attending a single, intensive class, our flexible approach allows you to follow the agenda that best meets your needs, taking any combination of Introduction, Intermediate and Advanced, on the dates that suit you. In combination, you'll gain all the knowledge you need to pass the Adobe Premiere ACP Exam. And whether you take all three classes or just two, you'll always pay less than if you book the classes separately. All our Adobe Premiere Pro courses are taught by industry professionals who are also Adobe Certified Professional trainers. They will share years of their industry experience with you, imparting best practice techniques as well mastery of the tools.
Our free Training Needs Analysis will help you decide whether the Introduction or the Intermediate Premiere course is your best starting point. Our recommendation is usually to allow at least 3 to 4 weeks between classes, depending on your study time. When you've completed the curriculum you need to meet your goals, we'll arrange for you to take the ACP exam.
Topics covered include Working in the video industry, Project setup and interface, Organising video projects, Creating and modifying visual elements, Publishing digital media and Taking the Premiere ACP exam. Please note that there is a separate cost for the exam.
