Class Description
Luminous Works trainings are all useful, helpful, relaxed, and informative. Class space is comfortable. I always walk away feeling like I learned a lot. This training was no different. I am looking forward to PDF forms next week.
Traditional paper forms are increasingly being replaced with online interactive forms, as organizations seek to become more efficient and environmentally conscious. This trend away from paper will surely continue, but how do you get started producing these forms? Our class will get you over the technological hurdles.
who should take this class?
- Business professionals that want to streamline and standardize their workflow for e-mailing, sending, receiving and collecting data
- Those who have attempted to produce fillable forms on their own and have found they don't work, cannot be saved or that the end user experiences problems that result in the form being unusable.
- Anyone who wants to maximize the capabilities and functionality of forms
