I have been almost all the way through the Photoshop Lightroom Essential Training (5.5 hours)....I've watched it in bits and pieces, and have gone back to several chapters a couple of times....and I am very glad I did, because I learned a lot that I might not otherwise have gained from staring at even the best of the books. I have also looked at a couple of Photoshop chapters to better educate myself on some things I was hazy on, and started to look at a Dreamweaver set (I am thinking about dipping my toe in that deep dark pool at some point and wanted a little initial exposure to it). Again, I think I learned a lot from what I have watched. But, still being a novice, I cannot speak to how totally accurate the segments are and whether they leave any key bits out. My 30 days is up soon and I am not sure if it is worth the price ($25/month or $250/year I think) of continuing on, but what I got out of the first 30 free days was worth a lot more than $25 to me. Hope this helps. --Bob P.S. And as I did last night, if you have a technique question not covered in the movies you can usually get a quick and correct answer on the Adobe user forum(s) specific to the product in question.
