Introduction to Adobe's Technical Communication Suite 2

Course Description:

You've purchased Adobe's Technical Communications Suite version 2. Well done! I truly believe you've made a great choice and consider each of the main programs in the suite (FrameMaker, Captivate and RoboHelp--and we'll touch on PhotoShop CS4) to be top-notch. Of course, if you're like many people who have purchased the suite, trying to figure out what the programs do, and how they work together is a mystery.

The mystery has been solved! During this action-packed, hands-on, one-day class, you'll get an introduction to the programs that make up the suite. After that, you will learn to integrate the Technical Communication Suite the way it was intended.

Note: This is not a passive webinar or pre-recorded movie. This is a live, totally interactive class held over the internet!
