Adobe Groups

OFVM Adobe groups

OFVM runs one Adobe Group called Premiere and Post and supports two other established independently run groups by providing the venue.

What are Adobe groups?

These are monthly meetings of professional users of Adobe software. The aim is to provide a self help environment and to get up to date information from Adobe. Often outside experts in their field are invited to speak at the meetings. They are not for total beginners nor are they any substitute for training. The groups are free to attend. Adobe supports these groups.
