Simon was great, imagine it could be frustrating if you were in a big group or partnered with someone who didn't know the very basics

I had a little knowledge but just could not get to grips with Illustrator. The course has been brilliant and has given me a base from which to expand.

It was really great to learn what Illustrator could do in 2 days course. Now I need to practice what I have learnt. It was really great course and I highly recommend to others.

Great teacher. Training on software over the internet is tough but Phil did such a great job that it didn’t even feel like a virtual session.

The content was perfect for me as a beginner. There was plenty of opportunity to ask questions during the session, and at the end of the day. I feel like I really learned a lot. Can't wait to get stuck in.... and I really hated Illustrator before!

Phil was extremely knowledgeable about Illustrator - and very patient with novice learners! He gave clear directions, paced the course very well, allowed ample time for questions, and provided great suggestions. Thank you, I know that this course will help me in my work.

I wish I'd have done a course like this 20+ years ago. You even provided a pad and pen and I'm so glad to have taken so many notes. So much had been crammed into the course. I simply couldn't have remembered it all. And now I have certification which will no doubt stand me in good stead for the future. Many thanks.

Phil was brilliant as a training instructor with the difficult task of trying to teach people in the classroom as well as remotely. The course has everything you need to learn the basics of Illustrator & was surprised how much in just one day of training.

After having to postpone my course due to covid pandemic in March, i was a little concerned about taking the course in a class room environment, however the ability to take a virtual advance illustrator course at home - was perfect. I felt relaxed in the confront of my own home knowing i was safe and i felt i learnt more on the course, as i was so relaxed. I would defiantly take a virtual course at home again! The course instructor Phil, was so engaging and helpful throughout the course, something i have struggled to find on with other trainers before. If i had another course to take i would certainly ask for Phil again. Great knowledge of the software and a good people person. Top Mark for him. I would certainly recommend this course to my fellow team members. Personally the course was a good recap on new tricks on the illustrator software. It come so far since i last really used it. Next steps for me would be to learn more about indesign, as i'm sure there is more to learn that i don't know about.

Firstly, credit to Jen for her communication and updates in relation to the course status. For the actual course I found Phil to be welcoming, friendly and personable. He has been very generous in sharing his wealth of knowledge and with such enthusiasm to boot. It has been a really good experience.

I found this course extremely helpful and have gained a very good base knowledge of the software and how to use it properly. I had very limited knowledge prior to the session and found it difficult to understand. Now I feel much more confident using it and know it will be beneficial moving forward in my design career. The trainer was very patient and helped solve problems quickly even though the course was done through zoom. They were also very thorough in what they covered, explaining each tool properly. I would highly recommend xchange training to anyone looking to get to grips with Adobe software.

Doug was a very knowledgable and patient tutor, and explained all the skills and tools clearly and concisely. Due to current circumstances I had to complete the course remotely instead of class based face to face. This worked really well and I was able to share my screen if I needed specific support. I really enjoyed the course and would not hesitate to recommend XChange training.

The training day was very good and provided us with some excellent tools and tips. We learnt a lot and went at a good pace. The equipment was all working well and had everything we needed, however the temperature in the room was hard to control and went up and down a lot. Also the lunch vouchers weren't useable where we went (even though they said they were on the back) and so that was a little embarrassing. Alan had great knowledge and was very helpful and answered all of our questions.

The training provided was brilliant and I learnt so much. I feel confident that I will be able to use the tools and techniques I have been introduced to today in my own workplace, and that I will be able to produce the kind of work I had been hoping to after the training session. The equipment provided was fantastic and worked great, and the training offered was thorough and easy to understand.
