Adobe Captivate 6.0 - The Basics

This is a beginner's course (see course description below). No prior experience with Captivate is needed or assumed. The course covers all the topics that are normally addressed in Adobe’s two-day basic Captivate course.

You must bring your own laptop. PC is preferred since there have been reported bugs using Captivate on the Mac version. The training manual, Adobe Captivate 6: The Essentials by Kevin Siegel, will be used during the class and can be purchased on Amazon.com for about $40.

If you do not own or wish to purchase Captivate 6, it is recommended that you download the 30-day free trial one or two days before the first class so that you have access to the software for the duration of the course.

If the event is closed due to the limit of attendees being reached, please contact the VP Programs, Ronni Rubenstein, Ronni.Rubenstein@midnj.astd.org, for your name and email address to be placed on a waiting list for the next course, which is planned for early 2013.
