Adobe has announced it is offering a free eight-week online “Train the Trainer” course; the first class begins on the Adobe Education Exchange at the end of this month. Participants who successfully complete the course requirements will earn a digital credential and have access to an exclusive training toolkit, just for Adobe Education Trainers.

Adobe Education Trainers are an elite community of trainers with the skills and expertise to train K12 educators on teaching digital media with Adobe tools. To earn an Adobe Education Trainer credential, individuals complete a “Train the Trainer” course and participate in an online professional learning community. This community provides access to an exclusive toolkit of training resources as well as a peer support network for Adobe Education Trainers worldwide. Through engaging with the program, Adobe Education Trainers build their own capacity and the capacity of their colleagues and institutions to unleash creativity.

If you are interested in building your capacity and the ability of other teachers in your district or school site you can take advantage of this free program by registering for the online “Train the Trainer” course starting June 29th by visiting http://edex.adobe.com/pd/course/t4t2014.
