Ponder two facts: First, some Adobe apps were found to increase productivity by a whopping 49%. Second, one hour of classroom
instruction is conservatively worth 3 to 4 hours of self-study.

So after deducting the cost of the course and the time spent in class (at $30 per hour for example including salary and employer overhead)—and even if we only allow for a modest 20% gain in productivity—our courses still result in an annual Return On Investment of just over 1301%. That’s pretty good, but it’s not all. When you add customizable training and free after-class support, you’ll find your ROI on training with us goes right on up through the roof! We’ve got your back and we always will.
