The Nepean Arts & Design Centre – TAFE NSW, Western Sydney Region in Kingswood was the venue for a special Adobe in Education event for TAFE NSW teachers on Thursday 28th June.
This was an information session based on how and why Adobe Creative Cloud applications are making a positive difference in Education & Training across the globe. Over 40 TAFE teachers registered for this event from a range of schools around western and central Sydney.
Jerry Wong (Adobe Customer Success Manager), Craig Daalmeijer-Power, Me & Jason Grant (Adobe Solution Consultant)
The event was largely organised by Craig Daalmeijer-Power (second from the left), Head Teacher – Photography and Screen & Media at the TAFE NSW Nepean Arts & Design Centre. Graig, myself and Jason Grant (far right) offered a set of the following workshops:
- Sparking creativity with Adobe Spark
