Lightroom is not an intuitive software and for this reason this course will show how it differs from Photoshop and how it works. The Lightroom course covers all of the main features in to enable you to use the software fully. By the end of the course you will be able to navigate all of the functions and customise settings to suit your workflow. Below are some of the features covered on the course:

Understanding the Adobe Lightroom interface

Post-production (Lightroom and Photoshop) is the only course where you really need to have the software to benefit from the material covered. If you have Photoshop Elements you will find this has a very different layout to the main versions of Photoshop and is not recommended for this particular course. If you have an older version of Photoshop than CS6 you will still be able to do the course but do bear in mind there may be some functions not available as they may have been added in later editions. This is the same for Lightroom; however most of the editions in Lightroom look similar.
