Adobe Certification Training in InDesign

The role of the desktop publisher is to combine text and graphics
together into finished products, which include printed works and PDF
files. Sample documents include everything from business cards to books,
fliers to brochures, and reports to advertisements, from print to web.
Adobe InDesign is a high-end desktop publishing program geared towards
professional and/or advanced users.

Although this is not a career certificate, this award will enhance the
recipient's value in the job market. Desktop publishing is recognized by
the U.S. Department of Labor as one of the fastest growing occupations
in the years 2000-2010 and requires only a Postsecondary vocational
award.

This certificate prepares the student for the Adobe InDesign ACE
industry exam. In addition to the preparation provided by this
certificate, desktop publishers should also have a good understanding of
design, layout, typography, and color. A good desktop publisher is
detail oriented and creative.
