Course overview.

Fillable forms, signatures, redaction that removes the text, tagging and accessibility checks.

The 1 day works through 7 modules and 34 individual topics, from Creating PDF forms to Distributing forms and collecting data. Each module is taught then practised — you do the thing rather than watch it done — on our exercise files, and on your own where you are able to bring them.

Groups are kept small enough that everyone gets hands on the keyboard, and the facilitator is in the room the whole time rather than dropping in. You leave with the workbook, the exercise files and notes in your own words.

from 22 reviews collected by Nexacu

Wizard courses run on the shared Nexacu schedule, so these are reviews of this course from people who sat it. Collected by Nexacu after the course and published as written.

David was an engaging presenter. I was worried about the course being delivered online, but David absolutely smashed it and got so much information across in an easy to understand way. I learnt so many tips and tricks to improve the efficiencies of my work every day.

David was a really engaging trainer. The pace was perfect and I learnt a huge amount about PDF forms that I am confident I can apply. I was initially disappointed that the course changed to online at the last minute as I usually don't learn very effectively online but this course was really really good! Big thanks to David! He has a great training style.

Questions

Questions People Ask About This Course

Anything not answered here, call 1300 886 190 and ask a person.

How long is the Adobe Acrobat PDF Forms course?
It runs for 1 day, 9:00am – 4:00pm, with a facilitator in the room the whole time. Nothing is pre-recorded and there is no platform to log into afterwards.
How much does Adobe Acrobat PDF Forms cost?
$550 per person, excluding GST. That covers the course, the workbook and exercise files and the room. If four or more people from one organisation need it, an in-house day usually works out cheaper — tell us the numbers and we will price both.
Do I need any experience before this course?
Yes — this level assumes Acrobat Essentials, or equivalent experience picked up on the job. If you are not sure, tell us what you already do and we will place you honestly, including telling you to book the level below.
Can I do Adobe Acrobat PDF Forms online instead of in a classroom?
Yes. Every date marked “Live online” runs over video with the same facilitator and the same practice, in breakout groups rather than a room. You use the software on your own machine, so you leave with it set up the way you actually work.
Which cities do you run Adobe Acrobat PDF Forms in?
Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, plus live online. Every venue is a CBD training room with a workstation for each person. If your city and date are not paired on the schedule above, ask — dates are released in blocks.
Which Acrobat level should I book?
Work from what people already do rather than how long they have used it. The full course outline above shows exactly what this course covers, and the Adobe Acrobat page lists every level in order. Still unsure? Call 1300 886 190 and describe a normal Tuesday.
