Adobe Certified Associate Programme

Landing that first job out of high school or college is daunting. The classic dilemma for students entering the workforce with little or no experience is convincing employers they are capable of doing the job. Talented students now have an effective credibility-building tool they can add to their CV's - Adobe Certified Associate.

For those seeking employment that requires demonstrating the ability to use digital media needed to plan, design, build, and maintain effective communications, Adobe Certified Associate is a certification programme that validates the skills of job seekers.

WHAT TALENTS CAN BE DISPLAYED THROUGH ADOBE CERTIFIED ASSOCIATE?

Adobe offers three areas in which to gain certification for entry-level skills:

• Web Communication using Adobe Dreamweaver - the industry's leading Web development tool, which enables users to efficiently design, develop and maintain standards-based Web sites and applications. With Adobe Dreamweaver, you can go from start to finish, creating and maintaining basic Web sites to advanced applications that support best practices and the latest technologies
• Rich Media Communication using Adobe Flash - the industry standard for creating and delivering effective rich interactive content across desktops and devices. Adobe Flash enables users to integrate animation, video, text, audio and graphics into engaging user experiences that span a wide variety of digital devices, from desktops to mobile phones.
• Visual Communication using Adobe Photoshop - the industry standard for the utmost creative control in image editing and compositing. You can apply filters non-destructively, manage and correct colour more easily, convert colour images to rich black-and-white with one click, and retouch images with more powerful cloning and healing tools
