Two Days – usual price £469 +VAT special discount price £299 +VAT
It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the vast array of tools and features that Adobe InDesign has to offer. That’s where we come in. In only two days we can have you up and running with InDesign in a way that will surprise both yourself and your work colleagues. We can put you in control of the industry standard DTP package and have you producing your own newsletters, leaflets, magazines, books and posters with the minimum of fuss.
We’re not going to tell you that this will be easy. That it won’t require effort on your part. That you won’t be leaving our InDesign training course with your brain throbbing. We can, however, promise that it will be an experience that you will not forget.
Our renowned InDesign training course is designed for new users of InDesign. We’ll get you used to using the program’s tools and familiarize you with the most important of literally hundreds of menu commands. We’ll also give you a solid introduction to the basics of good design. After all, it’s no good being able to use a program if you cannot put it to positive use.
We’ll take you through a series of step-by-step exercises designed to polish your skills. We start off easy but you’ll soon be amazed by the complex and powerful things that you can do in InDesign. If you’re interested in a first-hand view of this InDesign course, please click on the banner below and read what our clients have to say .
We usually conduct our InDesign training in our comfortable London offices but we’re happy to come to you if this is what you prefer. (If there is more than one of you wishing to attend this course, we also offer substantial discounts for bulk bookings.)

"Thanks for the training last week, it was great – your style and methods are extremely clear and balanced. Brilliant!"
Ewen Cook
Mencap
"The In Design course was great. It covered all the basics along with the opportunity to try out some more adventurous exercises. The trainer was clear and very knowledgeable and the information I have gained will greatly help with my job"
Alex Marshall
In Touch Support
"One of the best courses I've attended! An amazing amount of useful and practical tools taught in a short space of time. I really appreciated the amount of information that the trainer knew about the whole print industry – not just the program itself. Thank you very much!"
Bev Heslin
Aitchison Associates Ltd
"An excellent introductory course which was hands-on right from the start (no working through a booklet or copious note-taking). The trainer was consistently good-humoured and patient, managing to move everything on at quite a pace but never leaving anyone behind. Added bonuses were the comprehensive InDesign manual handed out at the end, and the excellent lunches."
Elaine Withers
Professional proof reader
"I really enjoyed the course. I thought the pace was spot on and that the 2 days were interesting and informative. I'm sure I will be in touch with questions as I try to find my own way around the program!"
Samantha Horsfield
Wycombe Abbey School
"The training was tailored around the things I needed to learn which was immensely helpful, and I was able to learn an incredible amount in a short space of time due to the interactive exercises and well structured course content."

“I thoroughly recommend this course.The trainer gives a great introduction to InDesign’s features and functions. Back at the office, the course has had an immediate impact on how I do my work."

InDesign training course
"You packed an enormous amount into the two days which kept it challenging but not entirely overwhelming. The atmosphere of the class was great and that's very important, particularly that we got to share how we were feeling about things over lunch together. I would definitely recommend Europa Training and would come back myself if I needed further training."

"Just a quick line to say thank you to Europa Training. I took the 2 day InDesign intro course and I have to say it is good value for money. The fact that we were just 4 people taking the course made the class very personal. It was interesting with a good rapport between us and the trainer. By the way, lunch is great in a local nice restaurant!"
Ronald Hernandez
Designer
"Thanks to Europa’s highly-motivating two-day InDesign training course, I returned to work with the knowledge and skills to originate in something other than Quark for the first time in years! The pace of the course is fast, but the trainer tailored the projects to the small number of participants attending, so everyone felt that their particular line of work was addressed. It was fun, relevant and the time flew by.
"Wish I could go on the Photoshop and Illustrator courses, now. A definite recommendation from me!"
Jennifer Russell

"I found the 2-day Adobe Indesign course very useful. I learnt everything I needed to and at a pace that was appropriate for the whole group. I went from a beginner to a confident Adobe user in 2 painless days!"
Rebecca Still
Sandwell Homes
"This course was just what I was looking for. The trainer was so approachable; no question was too big or small, and he kept us smiling from start to finish! I am excited to get back to the office and put my newly gained skills into practice. Lunch was yummy, too."
Wendy Smith
The Anna Freud Centre
"The training is fantastic! I went from a beginner to a know-it-all in two days. I can do things now that would have taken me ages to learn myself, and I learnt it all at an easy fun pace."
Ashleigh Harper,
Paragon Management
"This course was excellent, the pace made it easy to follow, the tutor was very engaging and friendly, giving great examples for visual explanations to help us to understand what we were being asked to do. I would recommend this course to all beginners or people who need a refresher. You come out with much more knowledge than you expected and with confidence to do it in the real world! Loved it!”
Alicia Fontaine, CCS Group
"I went in to the training course with no knowledge at all and came out with the skills and materials to look instantly professional. The small size of the training group allowed me to ask more questions and ensured I was never left behind. Using my own organisation's examples, rather than made-up training exercises, also meant that by the end of the training I had corporate pdfs I could use straight away. Excellent."
