Deborah Hewes (Head, Publicity & Publication at Dyslexia Association of Singapore)

Thoroughly enjoyed the course (Photoshop CS6: Essentials) and feel empowered to use Photoshop! Happy to note that a refresher is available as well as adhoc support! Thanks! Han you were great!

Rowena Sim (Art Director, MIMS Singapore)

Han was able to answer all my questions and queries PLUS give me additional information that aided in my understanding of the course. I enjoyed his training and I feel that he is an excellent instructor. Thanks!

Janice Liang (Senior Executive, Toll Global Forwarding)

The 6 days put in to learning Adobe InDesign and Adobe Illustrator, both essential and advanced levels, have been well-invested! I started out not knowing anything about both softwares but completed the courses with a clear understanding that has helped me tremendously in my work to create marketing materials. The course materials provided were also adequate to support me as I work on projects after the course. From not knowing anything, after the course, I could already produce a decent marketing brochure.

Ricky and Hans are professional, skilled and patient trainers, which shows during class even when difficult questions are posed. It was a certainly a joy to learn under them!

Tham Sin Chee (Senior Production Editor, John Wiley & Sons Pte Ltd)

Excellent delivery of course (Photoshop CS6 Essentials) content (by Ricky Soh) - logical flow of content, timing, cross-references to earlier discussion on the topic, etc.

Ye Wanqian (Assistant Production Editor, John Wiley & Sons Pte Ltd)

A very patient instructor (Ricky Soh) who is attentive and is able to keep the course (InDesign CS6 Essentials) interesting throughout. Lessons are kept easy to understand and he is also very knowledgeable in what he is teaching.

Chan Herng Wei (Assistant Director, Department of Statistics)

As I sat through the 2-day training with Han, I realised that he has given us more than a foundational "know-how" training on Illustrator CC. He has also taught us smarter ways to use the software, imparted a fascination of how the Illustrator CC works to improve the designers's work (and lives), and generously shared industry insights with us. I left the training equipped with confidence and a keen curiosity to start using the software for design work professionally as well as personally. Thank you, Han!

Veronique Blanc (Program Manager, Singapore MIT Alliance for Research and Technology)

I recommend all beginners/intermediate in Web design to attend these courses (Intro to HTML5 & CCS3, Dreamweaver CS6: Essentials, and Dreamweaver CS6: Designing Websites for Mobile Phones & Tablets). Han is so knowledgeable and such a good instructor that you will be able to build and properly organized your own website in no time. Course materials are excellent. I look forward to attending the refresher class!

Esther Chan (Assistant Manager, Nanyang Technological University)

I'm glad I've gone for Illustrator CS6: Essentials as it really helped me understand the design techniques and what goes on behind the scene for every design that I see on the street. It also boosts my confidence to design stuff for work at work.

Han has been really helpful and patient; he is diligent in making sure everyone is comfortable and understands the course throughout the two days. When we asked questions that were out of the course syllabus, he did not stop us; he went on to guide us and went all out to ensure we get our queries and curiosity satisfied.

I would want to continue learning other Adobe softwares under him and if possible, recommend him as a trainer to my peers.

Audrey Chen (Editor, Ministry of Education)

InDesign CS6 Essentials was a very helpful course and I feel it imparted a good grounding in the basics of the software. Knowledge of how to use the software will come in useful in my job, and certainly for the future, within the publishing industry.

Ricky seemed very knowledgeable about the software, and was very responsive and engaging during the two-day course; I think everybody felt comfortable approaching him with questions. Overall, it is a good course.

Malcolm Chen (Assistant Marketing Manager, Park Avenue Hotels & Suites)

Han is a very experienced designer and coach. Initially I was apprehensive of my proficiency in Illustrator before the course. He is a very patient instructor and often shares relevant tips that are outside of the syllabus. Thanks to Han's coaching and encouragement, I'm able to have more confident to do my advertising designs.

Juniper Foo (Senior Manager, Energy Market Authority)

Kudos to the instructor Han for being passionate and knowledgeable about Photoshop. It certainly made learning fun. The workshop Photoshop CS6: Advanced was also chockabloc with techniques and loads of tips and demos, which can be overwhelming even over two days. However, Acadia provides free refreshers for as long as the courses are conducted, so that is definitely a plus point. Overall, I would recommend colleagues to check out Acadia's offerings, particularly those under Han.

Amnah Said (Assistant Manager, Nanyang Technological University)

Thank you (Ricky) for sharing the knowledge with us and providing useful tips which would assist in our work!

Tan Ai Lian (Senior Lecturer, Nanyang Polytechnic - School of Information Technology)

It (Dreamweaver CS6: Designing Websites for Mobile Phones & Tablets) is a useful course for all to start with mobile website.

Christof Luda (Lecturer, Nanyang Polytechnic)

I enjoyed the course (InDesign CS6 Essentials) and learnt a lot. Ricky was keen to explain lots of things and made it a point to find out on the more difficult questions which didn't belong to the essential course. I am looking forward to the next course.

Ang-Ng Foon Foon (Lecturer, ITE-College East)

Han is very knowledgeable, effective, approachable and very willing to answer questions posed by participants.

Muhammad Fadhil Bin Ibrahim (IT Communication Executive, Acez Instruments Pte Ltd)

Attended both Illustrator CS6 Essentials and Advanced. I must say Han is an excellent trainer with in-depth knowledge and expertise. For every topic that we are learning, he made sure that we understand the functions fully and also made the effort to explain in details how relevant it is to apply to our daily job scope. He is also very patient with our questions. After the course, I am very confident of using Illustrator and help out with the artworks and EDMs that I need to create.

Overall, I rate Acadia 5/5 for its skilled and efficient instructors and excellent training I received.

Hope to enroll in more training with Acadia soon!

Tan Lin Choo (Secretary, Adam Road Presbyterian Centre)

I have gained a much deeper understanding in this interesting subject. I find the topics covered to be very practical and relevant. The course significantly improves my design skills in the area of my work - mostly creating newsletter and posters.

I enjoy the class conducted by Mr Han very much as he is a helpful and friendly instructor. He is always patient to all our questions and he is one instructor that I find very knowledgable in the software.

Andrea Liu (Owner, Frolik Pte Ltd)

A really good intensive 2 days beginners to intermediate course for Illustrator. As a beginner I didn't expect to learn so much in only 2 days. The instructor was engaging and kept the pace of the course just right. It has opened my eyes to design and the wonderful world of Adobe!

Suasti Lye (Owner, Suasti Lye Photography)

The course was great and Han answered all questions thrown at him. His ability to keep things upbeat was also great as was his energy. Much appreciated.

Samuel Tay En Zhong (Director, Alpha Marketing Solutions Pte Ltd)

Very good course (Photoshop CS6: Essentials) that offers great value for money. The course is well structured and the class size facilitates discussion.

Max Lim (Executive Director, 1st Property Pte Ltd)

With all things being positive, I would not mention about how good you (Han) are. What make you special was I can feel that you are sincere about teaching, and you sincerely hope that we can master the skill after the lesson.

Lydia Pavlova (Stainability and Comms Manager, The China Navigation Company)

I got a lot out of this training course (InDesign CS6: Advanced) as it allowed me to improve my InDesign skills. The training materials are very helpful too. A huge thank you to Ricky for answering all my questions and being very patient!

Samantha Gilbertson (Visual Merchandising Manager, Chopard Asia)

Han is an excellent instructor who keeps the class interested at all levels. I have learnt many tools in which I can use to fulfil my working role more efficiently. Many thanks Han, don't lose your infectious enthusiasm towards the Adobe programs. See you again soon! Thank you!

Hazel Lin (Promotions & Visual Merchandising Manager, Clarins)

The course (InDesign CS6: Essentials) provides a quick understanding on the basic skills and how to use the software in a short period of time; very fruitful 2 days!

Sharon Lee (Marketing Designer, DesignOne)

I have learnt much more on the various tools that Illustrator has and whether I use them, it’s comforting to know where they are and how to use them. I find that Acadia Training is more comprehensive and there were a lot more being taught here than I previously learnt elsewhere. You will feel your time will be worth it and the course has certainly enhanced my skills in the field. The class material is easy to refer back if you’d like to practice the lessons again at home, and yes the curry puffs for our tea breaks are yummy!

Lin Jingyi (Individual)

The trainer gave us very useful and practical tips on how to apply the skills/techniques learnt (particularly the shortcuts part). The content covered was quite comprehensive. GREAT JOB and I'll recommend it to my friends!

Li Kaiyi (Regional Marketing Comm Executive, Geberit SEA Pte Ltd)

Ricky is extremely patient in addressing all our questions and he has very in depth knowledge of the InDesign program. I have learnt a lot during the course that would be very useful for my work. Look forward to learning more during the Illustrator course.

Ng Mun Yee (Marketing Executive, The Salad Shop)

Ricky was able to share tips which is not included in the course to enhance our learning.

Yeo Soon Huat, Mark Christopher (Driver Communication Officer, CityCab Pte Ltd)

Han elaborates in details which is easier to digest. He understands the needs of every individual participant and I value his prompt action which has help me develop a better understanding for Adobe Flash CS 6.

So good job!

Chris Ngon
(Fundraising and Events Officer, Publicity & Publication at Dyslexia Association of Singapore)

Ricky is humble and willing to share. It's an informative session even if a student has some background in Photoshop. I learnt many new stuff!
