Utilise the application’s tools to organise, optimise and output your photographs without swapping between workspaces – it can all be done with a click of the mouse, and by the time you’ve completed the course, you’ll find it simple, every step of the way.

A Toolkit of Features

Learn how to optimise your photos with some popular image editing techniques that can make a massive difference to the photograph and provide a result that is simply stunning. A simple move, such as removing the red-eye from your favourite image, can transform a photograph from mediocre to marvellous, and with Lightroom 2.0, you can make these adjustments with refinement and expertise. Once you have finalised your images, you can also export them as prints, or as a slideshow, for friends and family to enjoy, time and time again.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
