Adobe Video Basics
Very informative and helpful, especially for a video-editing newbie! Would have liked to create one entire project on own to test skills and have instructor provide feedback. -
Adobe Video Basics
Great place with teachers who are experts in the field. Allows to you retake class if you do' not feel you grasped the content the first time. Beautiful location too. -
Adobe Video Basics
I would definetely recommend Ascend Training. The instructors and staff are wonderful to work with, friendly and know what they are talking about. They have a huge selection of training that will help and enrich you anyway you are looking to. After a class with them I don't mind going back to work. -
Adobe Video Basics
I have nothing but good things to say. It is amazing how much I keep learning after attending any of their paid or free sessions. If you are using any of the adobe products definitely check this place out to keep yourself current with the updates or even learn some hidden items that you might have not known about for years. -
Adobe Design Basics
I am so thankful for the Adobe Basics: Intro to Photoshop, InDesign & Illustrator at Ascend Training. This class was exactly what I needed. I am so excited to put my new Adobe subscription to use with confidence. The instructor tailored the class to every student's individual needs, and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend this class for anyone who uses these programs. I learned so much about how to integrate Photoshop, InDesign & Illustrator properly and efficiently. I am already looking at the upcoming schedule to see what class I need next. -
Adobe Design Basics
To say that Ascend Training changed my life, sounds a little dramatic, but it happens to be true! It was mid-semester when I realized that my side "passion" projects are what I actually should be doing for a living. I dropped out of grad school, and with the money I had remaining for the semester, purchased the introduction to InDesign class. It was the Adobe software I was the least familiar with but the one that was essential to landing any design job. I completed the class and after two days, went home to make fake brochures, business cards, anything I could think to build a small portfolio. Within a month I had an internship as a designer at a local start-up which led to a paying job a boutique marketing firm, then a legal publisher, and now as an in-house designer at a global organization. Ascend gave me the skills and confidence that I could pursue a new career path that I didn't think was possible. The value of the class is outstanding and you leave with the skills to apply to real-world situations. You are given invaluable tips that you would never learn on your own, and are taught processes that not only enhance your skills but also your productivity. I am so thankful that I found their class as it really did change my life and helped me get where I am today! -
Adobe Design Basics
Amazing class. I took Adobe Basics from Laurie and she was so patient and fun! It was a great introductory course into Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign. Would highly recommend to take this if you haven't spent much time in these programs. Already looking forward ro taking more classes in the future! -
Adobe Photoshop Level 1
Jori, Jackie, Fabiola and the whole crew at Ascend Training... they are some of the most genuinely helpful and educated people I have worked with. I was both a speaker and student at their Adobe Days event - I'm also continuing to work with them in the field of SEO. Their Adobe Days event was incredible, no wonder so many people showed up. You start in an incredible auditorium at the Chicago Fine Arts Building then eventually get split into smaller groups so you can choose what subject you want to learn about (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, 3D, marketing, etc). Each one I went to was just as helpful as the last. Their instructors know how to speak to both beginner and advanced students and go straight into diving into whatever program/topic you're learning about. No fluff which is exactly what I was looking for. Working with them outside of Adobe Days is just as good. They're always open to new ideas and are very easy to get along/work with. I really can't say enough about the whole experience, it's just one of those things you just want to get more involved in, and I plan to. -
Adobe Photoshop Level 1
As a director level creative and designer, it can be time consuming to keep up with the advances in the Adobe programs. There is also a stigma that senior level professionals should be at their top game, and not need continued education. I disagree with this, as there is always room to improve regardless of your accomplishments. I recently had a top-notch experience with Ascend Training in further developing skills I already had. Adobe programs are constantly updating and adding tools now that they are cloud based. I attended three classes with Ascend, each led by a superior teacher and working professional. I attended Photoshop 1 and 2. Every day I left saying "Wow!" I have been using the creative suite for 20 years, and just about every tutorial we went through was either a better, more streamlined way to work, or a completely new tool I did not even know existed. The phrase "you don't know what you don't know" truly applies here. We went through dozens of tutorials in which they supply the files and a book to bring home and continue practice on your own. The teachers and staff such as Jori, Jackie and Fabiola are well versed in the programming and are there to help you have a phenomenal experience. I look forward to deepening my expertise with Ascend, continuing my path to always being a better designer. -
Adobe Photoshop Level 1
I have taken Photoshop Level 1 with Jori and have always had such a fantastic experience. The classes are tailored to each student's needs, and the environment is very positive and inviting. Their 8-month retake period is amazing! Could not recommend these courses more! -
