Build Your Adobe Express Skills This Fall

Announced on: Friday, Sept. 25, 2026

This fall, the Learning and Development department and the Division of Information Technology are providing two Adobe Express sessions to assist Chico State employees in developing on-brand, internal-facing materials. We'll cover everything from getting started with the campus templates to completing a multi-page project, and we'll learn some practical design skills along the way.

Adobe Express is a web-based design tool available at no cost to faculty, staff, and students through Chico State Adobe Creative Cloud. Register for both sessions to build your confidence and apply what you learn right away.
