Dreamweaver CS3 Training - Adobe Creative Suite 3

Instead of looking for Adobe CS3 Training, (which still covers Dreamweaver CS3 training), why not make yourself more commercially viable and move on to Creative Suite 4?

CS3 is still a practical solution in industry today, but as more people develop the skills to use the tools of the slicker and speedier Adobe CS4 platform, doesn't it make sense that you do the same?

Web design is a very dynamic and evolving discipline. As the number of websites on the internet grows massively every day, it's essential to be equipped with the latest knowledge to meet the growing demand for web professionals.

Adobe provides the most globally accepted commercial web design packages, and we advise that you'll need an understanding of the full Adobe Suite, including Dreamweaver and Flash to be able to work commercially. These skills can lead to becoming an Adobe Certified Expert or Adobe Certified Professional. If you restrict yourself to Adobe CS3 training, or Dreamweaver CS3 training, you'll experience great difficulty when it comes to taking these CS4 certifications.

Gaining your Adobe skills is an important aspect of web design training, but it's not the whole story. We'd recommend that you select a comprehensive training package that will help you build a wealth of disciplines into your portfolio.

And whilst we're on that subject, check that the training isn't mainly a bundle of books to pour through - this is the world of technology, and web designers work on computers, not with pen and ink!

A good Adobe training package will take you step-by-step through the basics of web design, HTML, XHTML and CSS.

You'll cover Dreamweaver and Flash Professional, and soon be able to create stunning visual content.

Then it's time to learn some more advanced web topics, to differentiate yourself from the crowd. Get to grips with Apache Web Server Administration, dynamic PHP page creation, and E-Commerce.

Students Talk VideoThese days, it's also smart to get an understanding of Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). Although this is very much an evolving subject, commercial web designers must know how to perform effective 'on-page' optimisation - as well as have a complete understanding of what is involved with 'off-page' optimisation (which involves in-depth knowledge of keyword strategies) and Google 'Adwords' and other online advertising.

Without this, the websites you design and build will only be spotted via expensive and time-consuming off-line marketing.

Info Pack ButtonSo whether you have ambitions to become a professional web designer or web developer working in a commercial team, or your dream is to build your own website and start your own web or internet marketing business, getting the right training package is critical. Think carefully about training in CS4 before you put all your time and effort into Dreamweaver CS3 training or an Adobe CS3 training program, only to find yourself having to up-grade to CS4 shortly afterwards.
