Advanced QuarkXpress Training

QuarkXpressThis QuarkXpress training course concentrates on some of the more advanced DTP techniques and upon publishing well-structured long documents including complex functions such as working with tables of contents and indices and using Master Pages and Style Sheets to create logical document structures which manage dependancies between document levels and styles. The course is available on-site at your workplace or as live virtual classroom for one-to-one sessions and small groups of up to 10 delegates. For QuarkXpress training costs, see below and contact us for our latest trainer availability in your region.

We have mobile Desktop Publishing trainers who can deliver QuarkXpress training virtually and in Manchester, Liverpool, Preston, Lancaster, Bolton, Warrington, Barrow-in-Furness, Chester, Stockport, The Wirral and throughout mainland UK.

This course can be combined with the Beginners QuarkXpress training course to create a two-day training programme. Alternatively, you can also blend the training with other desktop publishing software such as Adobe InDesign. Or, if you are migrating from InDesign to QuarkXpress or vice versa, you can opt for a conversion course.


Live Virtual Classroom QuarkXpress Courses

These live instructor-led courses are taught via MS Teams video conferencing.

Why choose virtual learning? As we are all becoming more used to Online learning and live virtual meetings it has become apparent that the virtual classroom method of delivery has many advantages over traditional face-to-face learning venues.
