If you’re getting ready to take the Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) Exam for Adobe Premiere Pro CC, I recently helped write a study guide for it. Learn Adobe Premiere Pro CC for Video Communication: Adobe Certified Associate Exam Preparation (yeah, it’s a long title) isn’t just a book. Buying the printed or ebook versions of Learn Adobe Premiere Pro CC for Video Communication: Adobe Certified Associate Exam Preparation also gives you access to the Web Edition with embedded videos by experienced Premiere Pro instructor Joe Dockery. I wrote the text that accompanies Joe’s videos.

Video production isn’t just about software and hardware; it’s a creative activity that is often highly collaborative. To provide more well-rounded training for Premiere Pro CC, Rob Schwartz contributed additional lessons about design and typography, good business practices, professional collaboration, and project management.

You may be familiar with my books and videos about Photoshop, but I’ve also used Premiere for many years. During my time at Adobe I helped write the user guide for Adobe Premiere. That application became Adobe Premiere Pro, and now it’s Adobe Premiere Pro CC.
