This is my second class from Noble Desktop, and I fully plan to take other courses in the future. The instructors are knowledgeable and approachable. The method of demonstration first and then completing an exercise really helps with retention of the information. The exercises are great, easy to follow and have lots of tips and reminders built in. Best of all -- free t-shirt!”

“Ethan's deep knowledge of InDesign was evident, and he was friendly and helpful in answering my many questions. The classroom setup was elegant, modern, and comfortable and created a relaxed environment for learning. Noble Desktop's threefold approach to learning works: the instructor describes and demonstrates a principle in the first step, the student experiences it for himself in the necessary hands-on second step, and the instructor becomes available for one-on-one help in the third step. A winning approach.”

	Richard Portelance Web Manager Canterbury School 7/17/08

“Many people are gifted educators. Others are talented in industry. Noble Desktop has acquired a staff with the rare gifts (and experiences) in both areas. Additionally, a student receives feedback from fellow students as to what goes on in the industry and, consequently, what should be addressed in the classrooms. Course materials are relevant and thorough. Lots of lab time is available, and that is a MUST. I will pit these courses against the best ones - and I plan to take other courses in the future. In doubt? Try one of their free seminars.”

	Rachel Bleiweiss-Sande Field Operations 5/9/08

“Victoria's demeanor was relaxed and professional. She balanced time and specific questions in order to benefit the entire class. The instruction/exercise book is an absolute treasure - while the exercises could stand alone for a student learning on their own, they are even more valuable for me to refer back to now again and again to cue my memory of the steps that were so well presented in class.”

	Gia Lam Senior Designer Vanguard Direct 3/21/08

	Andrea Gill Associate FGIC 3/20/08

“I consider winning Noble Desktop's InDesign class the best possible 2008 New Year's gift. Having not taken any classes recently, I forgot how helpful an organized class can be to doing my work. I went in with lots of questions and many bad habits trying to use this new program, and have walked out confident and able to tackle my design work with speed and a new perspective. I now plan on taking other classes.”

“The equipment and space at Noble Desktop are impressive because the quality and standards are high at Noble Desktop.

	Cynthia Rhett Art Director/Designer Self-Employed 3/6/08

“Absolutely fantastic. Carl (and Dan for the last 3 hours) were both excellent teachers, enormously intelligent, super funny and very hands-on. One day after my class ended I was already knee-deep in creating my first website. I will absolutely be taking more classes as the need for more advanced techniques arises and have already recommended the HTML/Dreamweaver Comprehensive to friends who are interested in learning website creation fast, efficiently and effectively. Thanks so much guys!”

	Luis Wolf Production Artist Ruder Finn 2/28/08

“Before I took the class, the idea of tackling InDesign scared the you-know-what out of me. But the examples, the hands-on exercises, the class structure and the instructor made everything so easy. I'm actually excited about working with the program now.”
	Bonnie Burke Marketing Coordinator Yankelovich 2/28/08

“I really wasn't really expecting much from the class when I signed up- just to learn the basics of the program. Instead, I feel like I walked away with a very good understanding of the how the program works and how to use it effectively. I also thought that I would be bored to tears by 3 days of computer classes (usually not my cup of tea), but the lesson structure was extremely well set up and the instructor Ethan made it fun and engaging and time really flew by! Hopefully I'll have a chance to take another class in the future.”

	Karen Merbaum Top Cat/Creative Director Barking Cat Studio, Inc 2/22/08

“I had taken both HTML and Dreamweaver courses with other schools in the past. Although the course instructors were knowledgeable I nonetheless found it somewhat difficult to absorb the lessons. Noble Desktop teaching methods made learning easy for me. The course instructor was very well informed, communicative and personable. Because of which, I now have a clear understanding of both the application, Dreamweaver and technology, HTML. I came away from the class empowered!”

“The Flash Intensive class was just that...Intense, I highly recommend it.”
	Richard Toonkel Designer The Sawtooth Group 2/14/08

“The instructor is how I usually judge the value of the class. If the instructor is good, the class is usually good. Laura was great. She knew Photoshop inside and out; knew the feature differences between CS, CS2, and CS3. I don’t believe anything was asked in class that she was not able to answer. She paced the class well (DIDN'T rush through the exercises so that we (she) could get out early) and provided good info and examples that were above and beyond what was in the training material; good information about color correction and file types, etc. I would absolutely take another class of hers.”

“As a professional in the design community, it's important that I stay up-to-date with the various apps of the trade, and I've taken continuing education classes at a handful of NYC institutions. My experience in the Advanced Flash class at Noble Desktop was a pleasant surprise, and I walk away knowing more about ActionScript then I had imagined. I'm looking forward to the Super Advanced Flash class.”

	Matt Brown Graphic Designer Douglas Gould & Company 2/7/08

	Syndi Becker Design Director Time Inc. Content Solutions 2/7/08

“Without knowing anyone who had taken any of your classes, I took a chance on Noble Desktop, and I'm really glad that I did. The class not only gave me the tools that I need, but also the confidence in my ability to use them. I walked in with no knowledge of HTML and Dreamweaver, and walked out with a very clear understanding.”
	Lisa Weisser Communications and Outreach Specialist WIRED Bio-1 2/7/08

“The InDesign CS3 class taught me so many things that can be done with this program. I feel like I could go out right now and create a magazine or book layout that will look stylized, consistent, and professional! Even if you are a die-hard Quark fan, this class can provide a gentle transition into InDesign.”
	Bianca Stohrer D. E. Shaw & Co., L.P. 1/31/08

“Class was exceptional. My Flash Advanced instructor was able to harness and convey the power of Flash/ActionScript. My experience is best described by a Queen tune from the motion picture Flash Gordon:

Flash, a-ah, he's a miracle Flash, a-ah, king of the impossible

He's for everyone of us Stand for everyone of us He saved with a mighty hand (ahhh, ah) Every man every woman (ahh, ah) Every child - he's a mighty flash (ahh, ahh, ah).”

“I've taken three Advanced Flash courses -- somehow I was missing key concepts -- this class put them all together -- I finally "got it." GREAT CLASS. GREAT INSTRUCTOR.”

“I came hundreds of miles to attend and felt it was very worth the trip. The content was well presented and broken into logical chunks for real-time practice.”
	Beth Bailey Marketing Manager Scene Genesis 1/18/08

“This is the second time that I have been to a Noble Desktop class and I can't wait to come back for yet another class. I was sent by my job (Prudential) and my whole department raved about Noble before I came - and now I see why. I feel the instructors' approach is very practical and they left me with a strong foundation on which I can expand and learn more. I believe Noble is so successful because of their real commitment to education and helping people understand and apply what they learn. I was really impressed when I was leaving my Photoshop class on the last day and the instructor was giving away his phone number to a student who needed more help developing his personal/business website - it seems that you come to Noble to just "take a class" but you leave with friends that are willing and committed to help you long-term.”

“The class was the perfect level of instruction for a novice - they get you excited about the possibilities of InDesign without overwhelming you with information.”

“I think Noble is a great atmosphere, really a great place to learn. The teacher I had really helped me understand the program, and all of the things that can be done with it!”
	Carly Minardo Marketing Coordinator Party Rental Ltd. 1/10/08

“I approach software classes as paying somebody to read the directions to me out loud, since I don't have the patience to read the book myself. I also want someone who has already figured out which parts of the software program I need and skips the rest. Noble Desktop is perfect for this. I have taken two classes -- 10 years apart -- and both delivered the goods. The curriculum was comprehensive, well-organized, precisely targeted to its stated audience and professionally delivered. The handbook was a bonus. It is well-designed, including the examples (no small issue to a graphic designer), well-written (no small issue to a literate graphic designer) and carefully typeset (no small issue now that we're all typesetters, too!). Yes, I did read that book!”

“After having attended a Dreamweaver class with another company and leaving the class more confused than when I walked in, I decided to give Noble Desktop a shot. I am very glad I did. The instructor was fantastic, and taught the class in a well planned out manner drawing on her years of experience with the product each step of the way. The course material was easy to follow and will make great reference to look back to in the future. Overall, I am delighted I went with Noble Desktop and will be taking any classes I can with them in the future.”
