Private corporate batches, live online cohorts and 1-on-1 mentoring in the Adobe Creative Cloud toolchain — Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro and After Effects — taught as a production workflow — taught by a practitioner who runs it in production.
20 years across DevOps, SRE and Security · 10,000+ engineers trained · Trained teams at JPMorgan Chase, Verizon, Nokia and the World Bank
Principal DevOps Engineer & Architect
This Adobe track is taught as a production workflow rather than a tour of menus: every session runs live inside the applications against real files, and each module ends with an exported deliverable checked against the target medium — web, print or video. The syllabus is built around the decisions that actually cause rework — raster against vector, RGB against CMYK, linked against embedded assets, destructive against non-destructive editing, and the export settings that decide whether a file survives the handoff — and around the repeatability layer of styles, templates, libraries, presets, actions and batch export that turns one good asset into a consistent set.
Twenty years across DevOps, SRE and Security, in principal and architect roles at PayPay, SoftwareAG, ServiceNow, JDA Software, Intuit, Adobe and others. He has trained engineers at JPMorgan Chase, Verizon, Nokia, the World Bank, VMware, Oracle, Mercedes-Benz and Airbus — more than 10,000 people personally. He teaches what he runs, not what he reads.
You are booked with a named engineer, and that is who turns up. Marketplaces and larger providers rotate whoever is free, so the person who sold you the agenda is rarely the person teaching it.
The same trainer is available for the next engagement, which matters when a team builds on what it learned last time.
Your batch is assigned a named trainer before it starts, and that is who teaches it. See the full faculty.
Engagements are matched on the tool, not the calendar. For Adobe that means a trainer who has run it in production — the Adobe Creative Cloud toolchain — Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro and After Effects — taught as a production workflow — rather than whoever is free that week. You are told who is teaching before you commit, and that person is on the discovery call that shapes the agenda.
Where a batch is large enough to need a second trainer, the pairing is declared up front. The lead trainer stays accountable for the syllabus and the assessment either way.

Talk to us about a private Adobe batchAdobe Creative Cloud is not one application but a toolchain, and most of the difficulty in learning it comes from not knowing which tool owns which job. Photoshop is a raster editor for photographs, composites and screen artwork. Illustrator is a vector editor for logos, icons and anything that must scale without loss. InDesign is a layout engine for multi-page documents, print and digital publishing. Premiere Pro is a non-linear video editor, and After Effects is a compositing and motion-graphics tool that sits beside it rather than replacing it. Adobe XD and Adobe Express cover interface design and fast-turnaround assets.
What connects them is more important than any one of them. Colour management, resolution and pixel density, colour modes such as RGB against CMYK, linked versus embedded assets, Creative Cloud Libraries, and export presets for web, print and broadcast are shared concerns. Get those wrong and work that looks correct on screen prints muddy, ships blurry on a retina display, or arrives at the printer with missing links.
The difference between hobby use and production use is non-destructive, repeatable technique: adjustment layers and masks instead of painted-over pixels, smart objects instead of flattened edits, paragraph and character styles instead of manual formatting, master pages and templates instead of copy-paste, and actions, batch processing and export presets so the second hundred assets cost a fraction of the first ten.
Creative work has moved in-house. Marketing, product, sales enablement and internal communications teams now produce a continuous stream of assets — social variants, campaign artwork, decks, one-pagers, product shots, short-form video — at a cadence no external agency retainer was designed for. The skill gap is rarely artistic; it is operational. People can make one good asset and cannot make forty consistent ones.
Video has made this sharper. Short-form video is now the default format for most channels, which means editing, captioning, colour and audio cleanup have become expected skills for people who were hired to do something else. Premiere Pro and After Effects have moved from specialist tools to team tools.
Generative features — Generative Fill, Generative Expand, Firefly-backed tooling — have changed the speed of certain tasks without changing the fundamentals underneath them. They produce raster pixels at a specific resolution in a specific colour space, and someone still has to know whether the result is print-safe, whether the layer is destructive, and how to hand it to the next person in the chain. Training that skips the fundamentals leaves teams unable to fix what the generative step gets wrong.
A map of the toolchain before any of it is opened. What each application is genuinely for, where the overlaps are real and where they are traps, how Creative Cloud licensing and plans are structured, and how the applications share assets through Libraries, linked files and Bridge.
Topics: Creative Cloud applications and what each one is for · Raster, vector and layout — three different problems · Licensing, plans, seats and asset storage · Creative Cloud Libraries and shared assets · Adobe Bridge and asset browsing · Choosing a tool for a real brief
The layer underneath every application, and the source of most production failures. Pixels against points, effective resolution, PPI against DPI, RGB against CMYK, colour profiles and what soft proofing tells you, plus the file formats that matter and the correct one for each destination.
Topics: Resolution, pixel density and effective PPI · RGB, CMYK, greyscale and spot colour · Colour profiles, colour settings and soft proofing · Lossless and lossy formats: PSD, AI, INDD, TIFF, PNG, JPEG, WEBP, PDF, SVG · Linked versus embedded assets and package/collect workflows · Export targets: web, print, presentation and video
Photoshop taught around layers and masks rather than around the toolbar. Selection strategy, layer types and layer order, masking, adjustment layers, smart objects and smart filters — the set of techniques that keep an edit reversible three weeks after it was made.
Topics: Workspace, panels and a working document setup · Selection tools, refine edge and channel-based selections · Layer types, groups, blending modes and opacity · Layer masks, clipping masks and vector masks · Adjustment layers: levels, curves, hue/saturation, colour balance · Smart objects and smart filters · Retouching: healing, clone, content-aware and frequency separation basics
Vector construction from paths upward. The pen tool and Bezier control, shape building and pathfinder operations, strokes and appearance, type on a path and type outlines, artboards for multi-size delivery, and the export settings that produce clean SVG rather than bloated markup.
Topics: Paths, anchor points and the pen tool · Shape builder, pathfinder and boolean construction · Fills, strokes, gradients and the appearance panel · Type handling and converting type to outlines · Artboards for multi-size and multi-format delivery · Symbols, global colours and swatch libraries · Exporting SVG, PDF and raster from vector sources
InDesign for anything longer than a single page. Document setup with bleed and margins, master pages, threaded text frames, paragraph and character styles, tables, and the preflight and package steps that decide whether a printer can actually use the file.
Topics: Document setup: pages, columns, margins, bleed and slug · Master pages and page numbering · Threaded text frames and story flow · Paragraph, character and object styles · Placing images, links panel and resolution warnings · Tables, tabs and long-document features · Preflight, packaging and PDF/X export
A complete short-form edit from ingest to export. Project and sequence setup matched to the footage, the cut itself, audio repair and levelling, colour correction before colour grading, titles and captions, and export presets that hit platform specifications rather than guesswork.
Topics: Project setup, media management and proxies · Sequence settings, frame rate and resolution matching · Timeline editing: trims, ripple, roll, slip and slide · Audio: levels, loudness targets, noise reduction and ducking · Lumetri colour correction and grading · Titles, graphics, captions and subtitles · Export presets for social, web and broadcast delivery
Motion work that sits alongside the edit rather than replacing it. Compositions and the layer model, keyframes and easing, shape layers and masks, text animation, basic tracking and keying, then the Dynamic Link and render workflow that moves work between After Effects and Premiere Pro.
Topics: Compositions, layers and the timeline model · Keyframes, interpolation, easing and the graph editor · Shape layers, masks and track mattes · Text animation and animation presets · Motion tracking and basic keying · Expressions for repeatable motion · Dynamic Link, render queue and Media Encoder
The two tools that serve speed. XD for interface layout, components, prototyping and developer handoff; Express for template-driven assets that non-designers can produce without breaking the brand. Where each is appropriate and where it should stop.
Topics: XD artboards, grids and responsive resize · Components, states and repeat grid · Prototyping: interactions, transitions and preview · Design specs and developer handoff · Adobe Express templates and brand kits · Enabling non-designers safely with locked templates
The module that makes the previous eight scale. Templates and style systems, Creative Cloud Libraries as the shared source of brand truth, Photoshop actions and batch processing, export automation, file naming and versioning, and a handoff format the next person can actually open.
Topics: Template and style-system design across applications · Creative Cloud Libraries as shared brand assets · Photoshop actions, droplets and batch processing · Image processor and export automation · File naming, versioning and archive structure · Handoff packages: what to include and what to strip · Reviewing and approving work without email attachments
We rebuild the agenda around the tools you actually run.
Request a custom agendaTake a raw product photograph through selection, masking, adjustment layers and smart filters, then hand it back with every edit still reversible.
Rebuild a logo as clean vector artwork and export the full delivery set — full colour, mono, reversed, SVG, print PDF and favicon.
Build a multi-page brochure with master pages, threaded text, styles and correct bleed, then package it exactly as a printer would require.
Cut a short-form video from raw footage, repair the audio, correct the colour, add captions, and export to three different platform specifications.
Build an animated logo sting and a lower-third template with proper easing, then link it into a Premiere Pro timeline without re-rendering.
Produce a complete asset set for a single campaign — print piece, web banners, social variants and a short video — all driven from one template and library system.

Rajesh's experience and knowledge are exceptional and we learnt invaluable practical knowledge which we can apply in our production environment. Incredibly friendly and gave us a fantastic insight both in-depth and at a high level of the Rundeck product.
Great learning experience from a very knowledgeable instructor with well-prepared course notes. The lab exercises on AWS instance work well to learn the hands-on side of the course.
Rajesh is a very good trainer I have experienced in DevSecOps training. The number of contents in different topics he has posted on the DevOpsSchool public website are amazing and user friendly for beginners and experienced professionals.
The trainer (Rajesh) provided very good sessions on SRE profession. Not only hands-on learning on the tools but also SRE mindset.
Very good training session. Well explained from the basics to the complex concepts. Also tried to cover practicals and demos within the 3 hour sessions. The learning content and videos are of a great deal of help.
Basics explanation was exemplary from Rajesh where he dealt with complicated topics to be simple. Great learning stuff personally for me.
