I am a graphic design professional of 20+ years based in the Atlanta, Georgia, USA area. Last year I had the opportunity to travel to Kenya to teach a series of seminars on Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator at various conservancies around Mt Kenya. I'm interested in returning and would like to know if there might be a larger level of interest in the Niarobi area. Is there a need and desire for intermediate and advanced training in Adobe Creative Suite? If so, please contact me at steve@beaverdesigngroup.com.
