Dreamweaver Training Overview

Adobe Dreamweaver 8 is the leading Web development tool for Web professionals. In just 2 days, this Dreamweaver 8 training class teaches attendees everything they need to know in order to successfully build their first sites with Dreamweaver.

Location and Pricing

Most Accelebrate courses are taught on-site at our clients' locations worldwide for groups of 3 or more attendees and are customized to their specific needs. Please visit our client list to see organizations for whom we have recently delivered training. To receive a customized proposal and price quote, please contact us.

In addition, some courses are available as live, online classes for individuals.  To see a schedule of online courses, please visit http://www.accelebrate.com/online_training/adobe.htm.

Dreamweaver Training Prerequisites

Prior experience using the Web is required. This course does not require knowledge of HTML, but attendees with HTML knowledge will find Dreamweaver much easier to use in both the short- and long-run. Toward this end, we would be delighted to teach a one-day HTML primer immediately prior to this course.

Hands-on/Lecture Ratio

This Dreamweaver 8 training class is 70% hands-on, 30% lecture, with the longest lecture segments lasting for 15 minutes. Students "learn by doing," with immediate opportunities to apply the material they learn to real-world problems.

Dreamweaver Training Materials

All students in this Dreamweaver 8 training class receive a copy of Peachpit Press's Macromedia Dreamweaver Hands-on Training, related courseware, and a CD-R copy of the files they create during the class.

I am a self taught computer savvy person, so I judge any technical course by how it approaches teaching
non-expert end users. Accelebrate zeroed right in on the fact they were dealing with educated clients who were not "computer geeks" and made the course perfect to our level of understanding. I hope to see our organization utilize Accelebrate for additional training
needs.
