Because of the amount of material ThinkBIGLearnSmart covers in class, we do require students to be comfortable using a mouse, opening and saving files, and the general operations of computers. While we will make every reasonable effort to help, students with insufficient skills may be required to observe the class lessons or do their best to keep up without slowing down the rest of the class.
Class time is 8:30 a.m.- 3:30 p.m. Breaks are scheduled throughout the day and lunch is typically scheduled 12-1. Students provide there own lunch .

Adobe CS5 Course Materials
Adobe CS5 Course materials are provided. ThinkBIGLearnSmart's goal is to make sure your class meets your objectives, not ours. Therefore, all of our outlines are treated as guides to help steer the workshop. We may change or alter course topics to best suit the classroom situation.
Semi-private Class Size to Accelerate Skills Performance
ThinkBIGLearnSmart recognizes that learning is about performing. Our small class size and collaborative learning environment is designed for applying the learning to real business needs. Should clients require particular emphasis or customization of the training offered, please contact us directly at christine@thinkbiglearnsmart.com or call 301-362-2250 to arrange.
ThinkBIGLearnSmart's Adobe CS5 Upgrade Lesson Plan is an overview of what we generally intend to cover in our classes; however specific items (topics) that are actually discussed in class may vary per location. It is the desire of the instructor to focus on meeting the objectives of the students who registered for the class, rather than going through a course outline systematically.
