Classes

Listed here are the classes that I will be teaching in the coming months. This page is updated often to reflect changes to date, location and descriptions of classes.
New classes are added often. Enroll early for classes, as seating is limited and classes do sell out. Photoshop and InDesign classes are very popular and often sell out weeks before a class.
Please email me if you have any questions about my upcoming classes, or for a full list of classes offered by A-B Tech Continuing Education Department please consult the Class Schedule.

Summer 2009
It’s hard to think that I am planning classes for Summer 2009 - with so many NEW classes getting a head start is good.
Most all of the NEW classes are a result of Student Requests. One common request was for more in-depth InDesign and Photoshop classes. Summer 2009 I will begin teaching a series of Adobe classes that will consist of 4 workshops, Introduction, Intermediate, Advanced and Master level.
The Introduction is suitable for new and experienced Adobe software users. The Introduction session will focus on the every changing Adobe interface, some of the more useful new features, while visiting some of the older tools that have recently been improved. Workshops are hands-on projects, with real world design problems and reliable solutions. If interested in the classes, email me directly gary@irishguy.info .
More about complex masking, getting document ready for print, color connections, photo touch up, importing images… it’s a long list.
With that said - here is a list of upcoming classes. Time and location will follow shortly… at the moment nothing is set in stone. If there are classes that you are interested in, please do email me, and I will be sure to notify you about the next open session.
