I signed up for the Motion Graphics Certificate and I am very happy that I did. I have wanting to learn video / animation for a while but I didn't want to enroll in a full degree program. this program was perfect for me, the schedule was 2 times a week for about 12 weeks. I learned both Premiere Pro and After Effects and I started with absolutely no video skills and now I feel genuinely comfortable with the programs and have 3 projects of my own to add to my portfolio.

I took the 2 day Adobe Premiere Pro Intermediate course and it was exactly what I hoped it would be. Very easy to follow direction and the instructor, Kalika, was super easy to understand and clearly dedicated to making sure the students were grasping the contents of the course. Highly recommend to anyone looking to advance their skillset!

If you want to break into the tech field, Noble Desktop will definitely help. Certain programs might seem intimidating or have a certain difficulty curve but Noble Desktop will definitely help you move in the right direction. There was also a book that came with the class, InDesign in a day, that definitely helps and allows us to practice on our own time. All computers are functional and you have a choice of Mac or Windows. Excellent classes and excellent staff.

Noble is a great place for learning new stuff. I took Web Dev Lvl 1 course with my friend an it was a nice experience. The workbooks they provide are custom and unique, they could be purchased online. Also, the staff is so friendly. I planning to further take courses with Noble :)

This was truly a capstone class to get me ready to work on a full site development with a responsive approach. This class is an absolute must for anyone wanting to start creating amazing websites from scratch.

I completed the Graphic Design Certificate course in fall of 2019 with Eugenio it included Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign Bootcamps plus an additional section which introduced design theory and allowed us to practice making logos, brochures, and more. It was a very good course though I was a complete beginner, so I still felt somewhat incompetent when completed. I continued to practice and then retook the three Adobe bootcamps online during the quarantine with Dan Rodney he is an EXCELLENT teacher and things really started to click for me during the retake. It was probably more fun taking the class in person BUT the zoom online method was very convenient. I SO appreciated that Noble Desktop allows one to retake classes free of charge up to 6 months... during the covid crisis, I think they are even allowing this up to one full year, making this a great value.

I've been using Final Cut Pro since 2002 and, for the past few years, I've had a love/hate relationship with the new Final Cut Pro X (FCPX). I've tried Premiere Pro a couple times over the years but I never stuck with it because I would get lost in translation (keyboard shortcuts, jargon, etc.). I wanted to take this class because I learn best by having hands on experience and having the opportunity to ask an instructor questions. The instructor was very knowledgable, friendly and extremely helpful. The facility is professional and their curriculum very clear and coherent. I plan to take more classes here and even buy their lesson books.

I had an awesome experience with Noble Desktop. I took the fintech course after being recommended to it from a friend. The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful. They also gave us a ton of materials and resources to look at outside of the course to go back and review. I highly recommend taking a class with Noble.

I had a great class on Adobe Premiere. The instructor was knowledgeable, thorough, and upbeat. Class was well priced, I would recommend it to friends, and would definitely consider taking another class at Noble Desktop.

I took After Effects level 1 couple months ago and it was an excellent experience. The instructor was very friendly, helpful and I left the course with good elementary knowledge of how the software works and a great book to recreate the exercises to practice.

I am a New York City high school teacher without any formal background in graphic design or web development. My students love technology and Noble Desktop has given me the knowledge to showcase their work in new and exciting ways. I've attended both free seminars and 3 day training sessions and each time I walk out of their office feeling like a professional.

The 3 day InDesign class was well scaffolded; each project we worked through introduced new ideas and but weaved in topics from previous activities. My goal was to gain the skills necessary to create a yearbook for my own classes. My instructor, Darrell, spent much of his lunch break clarifying questions and providing insight on how to perform a few operations with greater efficiency.

Most people taking classes are in similar situations as I; no formalized training but enthusiastic about gaining the skills. The facilities are clean, modern. Comfy chairs. Fast Macs and PCs. The atmosphere is conducive for learning.

Noble Desktop is amazing at what it does: simplifying complex software without watering it down. I feel very fortunate that Noble Desktop is here in New York!

Noble Desktop is a terrific place to learn. Recently took "Git Going: An Intro to Git" there with Dan Rodney as instructor. His explanations were really clear, which was so helpful. Great class!!

Great instructors. Unique and effective teaching. Noble utilizes the watch and learn, then practice model. Very useful objects covered in the class and the examples are interesting. My go to place for new skills.

I've taken lots of difference classes here, and plenty of their free seminars too. All the instructors that I got were very knowledgable, helpful and very patient!! I'd definitely recommend this school to anyone who's convenient to commute to the area. The classroom is very comfortable and well equipped too!!

I attended the introduction to WordPress workshop. It was informative, concise and just what I needed. My only minor complaint is that the instructor promised to send a link to the slide presentation, so I didn't take as many notes as I ordinarily would have. The link has still not arrived, days after the workshop.

I took the fintech data science bootcamp and it sincerely blew me away. Not only did the instructors take us step by step through complicated excel and python tasks, but they also provided us with an incomparable amount of resources that I still used everyday in my classes and work. Overall, I would highly recommend this to anyone from college freshmen to mba students as there is something to learn everyday.

I singed up for the digital marketing certificate through my job. I highly recommend noble desktop--- all staff are wonderful! So far, I've taken 2 classes with Nicole. She explains complex digital marketing tools in a very user-friendly and simple way to understand. She has exceptional skills in teaching in a group setting, while also going around the room for individualized attention and takes time to answer everyone's questions. Super friendly and knowledgable! Also, administration staff are super helpful and friendly. They are always very accommodating, understanding, and provide exceptional customer service at every turn. I look forward to completing my digital marketing certificate.

Loved the Adobe After Effects Level 1 course. It definitely helped me get to know the program better. I was navigating through it blindly before my manager asked if I wanted to learn it. I jumped at the opportunity and so happy that I did. Learned so many shortcuts and different ways of animating! I would highly recommend the course and if your instructor is Kalika, consider yourself lucky. She knows her stuff!

I took part in the 4 week summer Java and Python intensive here. The instructors were great, the content expansive, and the equipment quality. I would recommend this intensive to any one who wants a jumpstart into the wonderful world of Java and Python coding!

Noble Desktop is the best computer science, and programming focused school in Manhattan hands down. I learned Java and Python faster than I ever could have otherwise, and was taught by amazing teachers. The skill set they leave you with will last you forever and the people here are always willing to help!

Training session was excellent. It covered all necessary material at the perfect pace. I left feeling ready to take on not only the next course, but also projects flowing through our department at work.

I have taken three courses so far from Noble Desktop over the past few years - UX Fundamentals, Visual Design, and Sketch - and all three were great. I highly recommend the Visual Design course. Typically it is taken by those transitioning from print, but as a developer with some knowledge of Sketch as well as basic graphic design concepts, I was able to relate to Dan's helpful and insightful feedback while working through the class website project. His suggestions covered a wide range of design elements such as content, choice and cropping of photos, gestalt principles, spacing, typography, color, the overall feel, etc.

Zach communicated clearly and promptly, understood the service that I needed, and worked with a colleague to deliver the product on time, as promised. I feel comfortable that if I need anything else from ND I can get back in touch and will receive excellent service. Highly recommend it.
