Features:  

Total Training just missed the 100 percent mark for features. They don’t offer closed captioning – yet. This feature is in the works but we were told they don’t have a timeline for release. Besides this minor detail, the features offered by Total Training are great.

Photoshop Tutorials are available on DVD or online, and include free project files. These are the same image files used by the instructors which makes it easy to follow along with the lesson. No other Photoshop Tutorial program we found offers a better variety of project files at no cost.

An online subscription service is available for Total Training Photoshop Tutorials. The price for an annual All-Access Online Library subscription is $249.99. They also offer a 6 month subscription for $175.99. Unfortunately, there is no monthly rate plan for the Total Training Online Library.

A free 14-day trial is available for Total Training: Online Training. The videos available during this trial period are limited to a single chapter for each course. This still offers several video tutorials, but mostly covers introductions and settings rather than teaching core concepts and techniques. This is not to say you won’t learn anything during your trial period; you will learn plenty. If, however, you want to learn the really cool stuff you will have to pay for it.

Finding what you need on the Total Training website is not difficult at all. A convenient tabbed menu allows you to select from a variety of product family’s to quickly find what you are looking for.

Navigating the Total Training: Online Training course list is also very easy. Simply scroll through the list, click on the one you want to use, select a chapter, and click on a video. It is easier that it sounds, really. Anyone can do it.
