About the Program
We are the only Apple Pro Certified Training Center in the region. We offer Final Cut 101 and DVD Studio Pro 101, both comprehensive 3-day workshops using the Apple Pro courseware to prepare you for certification as an FCP 6 or DVDSP 4 user by Apple. These workshops run for three intensive days Friday through Sunday. We intend to begin offering classes in Apple Motion 3 in the summer of 2008.

Most of our teaching is within our regular curriculum wherein we teach Final Cut and DVD Studio Pro as a part of 10-week (5-week in the Summer) courses in Nonlinear Video Editing and DVD Authoring, but we fit classes for teachers, production professionals and other non-student clients around our academic calendar and offer them when we have a critical mass of participants.

We conduct the courses in our Mac G5 lab with a flatscreen for each student and projection of my screen for your edification. The workshops consist of three long days during which you have 24-hour access to the lab so that you may practice what we cover in the lessons.

The course uses audio and video material provided by Apple and a series of step-by-step exercises designed to take you from zero to 60 in three days. The courseware assumes no prior knowledge or experience, but the more you come with, the more you will learn.

The fee for each course is $1000, which covers your book and all course materials as well as the fee for the Apple Certification Exam, should you wish to take it on the last day. A $200 deposit is due three weeks prior to the class to reserve your space in the class.
