As one of only a handful of Adobe Certified Instructors in the world, Managing Director
Gavin Orland has been a mainstay of the United Kingdom training scene since 2002.

Employed by many other training companies, he has instructed more than 300 people from a multitude of backgrounds and countries, including staff from leading digital media companies such as AKQA, Rockstar Games, Euro RSCG KLP, Feref Digital, Dare, Modem Media and LBI.

We are different from other training companies in a number of important respects:

We specialise in Flash

We use a variety of technologies, but we specialise in Adobe Flash^® and we only train Adobe Flash.

We're not a "middleman"

Aside from our strict ethical policy, we're different in that we are not a middleman. We therefore don't charge a middleman's fees. Most training companies employ external consultants. We are one such external consultant - when you deal with us directly you're dealing directly with the provider of your training.

We're a development company

We are not only a training company but also a development company. Rather than simply repeating the same theoretical information day in, day out, we actually use Flash all the time on live commercial projects, so we train from our experience of using the product in the real world. This is rare, perhaps even unique, among training companies.

We also avoid stating the obvious when training, we teach real-world techniques, and we check our courses scrupulously for errors (we've corrected more than 40 errors in other people's courses).

Your company might routinely send staff for training, in which case you know its benefits - or you might never have sent staff for training, or been trained, before. There are some significant advantages to spending time with a qualified trainer over and above reading books or using the Internet:

• You get the certainty of time dedicated to learning, with no distractions
• What you learn can be tailored to your exact needs
• You get to ask questions when you don't understand, and receive helpful replies
• Information comes in a more dynamic and accessible manner
• You receive after-course support via e-mail

We see it as our job to make complex ideas seem simple. We can bring you or your staff up to speed on new technologies in a matter of days.
