Who Should Attend

This course is for web designers and developers that would like to use Contribute to build intuitive, attractive and accessible web sites. This class will also cover the fundamentals of working with Adobe Contribute Publishing Services.

Prerequisites

Because of the amount of material we cover 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. We highly recommend working with the application tutorial before coming to the course.
