    Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to:

    • Navigate the Lightroom environment
    • Import and organise images

    • Apply a wide range of image adjustments
    • Add metadata and synchronise keywords

    Our goal is for you to manage and adjust images quickly and effectively.

    Course Target Audience and delegate prerequisites:

    This course is intended for those who wish to enhance their existing knowledge of Photoshop and who work as digital artists and photographers as well as those who work for advertising agencies, design agencies, marketing agencies, production houses, and specialist corporate departments.

    Note that this course is held on Adobe Lightroom (formerly Lightroom CC) rather than Lightroom Classic. While there is much common ground between the two, there are key differences in the way files are managed and located.
