Enjoyed the course and learnt more than I thought I would. Nice flexible option was for the trainees to submit images for the whole group to work on.

Simon has incredible knowledge of Photoshop and is brilliant at guiding through different solutions for different visual outcomes. The sessions were fun & engaging. He is incredibly passionate about the work he does. For the benefit of those taking the exam it might be worthwhile having a little more structure? That being said we learnt everything that was needed and in a fun way.

An extremely knowledgeable instructor who delivered high quality content in a professional and friendly manner. There were some technical problem with the mock exams (I think there was a problem with the Apple operating system and the version of Adobe Photoshop running). However, my instructor quickly solved the problem and I went on the pass the exam. I was very happy with the overall experience.

The pace of the course was just right and there was opportunity to ask questions along the way. Phil was a super friendly and helpful trainer, so I'd recommend his training to others and will ask to do future training through xchange with him where possible.
