No prior experience with Captivate is needed or assumed. The course covers all
the topics that are normally addressed in Adobe's two-day basic Captivate
course.

have been reported bugs using Captivate on the Mac version. The training
manual, Adobe Captivate 7: The Essentials by Kevin Siegel, will be used during
the class and can be purchased on Amazon.com for about $40.
Please bring a memory stick and your own refreshments. There
is a cafeteria at Essex County College, if need be.

recommended that you download the 30-day free trial one or two days before the
first class so that you have access to the software for the duration of the
course.

take up to 2 hours. Also, there are files that will be used during the class
that need to be downloaded. Adobe calls these "Assets."
