Course Description

This instructor-led course on Camtasia Studio 5 is the fastest way to gain the knowledge and skills to create high quality Camtasia videos with less time and effort.  Every part of Camtasia video creation will be covered with fun, informative lessons followed by practical, hands-on exercises.

This class was exactly what I was looking for. The course was well designed, the instructors excellent, and the experience both fun and engaging. Practice is key and we had the opportunity to practice everything we learned in class. All in all, I feel so very well prepared to do what I want to do with Camtasia Studio that I can't wait to get started. This class was well worth the money. Ron Martin Chicago, IL

I very much enjoyed the course. The hands-on approach of the instructor made it easy to grasp Camtasia's different tools. The class leaves you with wanting to develop your own presentation right away - to practice the learned skills using your own ideas as to what you would want to add.

As a Quality Trainer supporting a national audience I have been looking for a vehicle to present training without travel.

This course provided a very good overall understanding of Camtasia's capabilities. It was a fun class. Also, I appreciated the opportunity to try things out on my own in the labs, especially using a webcam! Best practices that were shared were very helpful. It would have taken me some time to figure some of the idiosyncrasies of Camtasia out on my own. Derella Miller Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (Dept Treasury) occ.treas.gov

The information was presented by an instructor that actually uses the software. I have been to so many classes where the instructor only knows what is in the student manual. Consequently, they cannot answer any "real world" questions. Tracey Cannon State of Alabama Department of Public Health
