Course Overview

The Adobe InDesign Beginner Course is a two-day training designed for individuals new to page layout and digital design. Delivered in small groups at our London training centre or online, the course equips you with the confidence to handle real design projects — from brochures and flyers to multi-page documents.

Throughout the course, you will explore essential areas including document setup, workspaces, panels, and tool usage. You’ll learn how to work with text frames, apply character and paragraph styles, insert images, and control layout with grids and guides. Practical exercises will teach you how to design visually compelling pages and optimise content for both print and digital formats.

Our approach combines step-by-step instruction with hands-on practice to ensure skill retention. By the end of the course, you will be able to produce professional-looking layouts independently and have a strong foundation to continue developing your InDesign skills.
