Dreamweaver CS6 Training Overview

Accelebrate's Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 training class teaches attendees how to build conventional and mobile web sites using Adobe Dreamweaver CS6.

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. These courses can also be delivered as live, private online classes for groups that are geographically dispersed or wish to save on the instructor's or students' travel expenses. To receive a customized proposal and price quote private training at your site or online, 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/?action=course&page=DRWCS6.1.

Dreamweaver CS6 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 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 CS6 Training Materials

All students will receive a copy of Wiley’s Dreamweaver CS6 Digital Classroom.
