This course is taught in a mac suite with 3 button mice. If you have a tablet (Wacom or other) you are welcome to use this with your own laptop. Tablets cannot be used with the UAL computers. Please be advised that UAL cannot provide technical support for personal devices.

IMPORTANT - Adobe ID Login for Short Course Students

  • Students will need to create an account with Adobe (unless you already have one) in order to access the Adobe suite at the college - instructions are included below. You will need to use a personal email address to create this. If you already have an account with Adobe, please make sure you bring your login details with you on the first day of the course

  • Creating an Adobe account is free

  • The software will only be accessible when logged into a UAL networked computer

  • The same account can be used outside of the University, but software will only be accessible through a personal paid subscription that students will need to set up independently

  • You can still create an account on the day but doing this beforehand will save time and avoid delays to the start of the class

  • If you already have an Adobe ID/ subscription you can use this on your short course rather than setting up a new account
