School & college students
Learn a creative skill that is in demand and useful for projects, events and part-time work.
Learn to edit photos, retouch portraits and design posters, banners and social posts in Photoshop — taught hands-on at techcadd Computer Institute Jalandhar, with every technique practised on real photos and real design briefs.
techcadd Computer Institute's Adobe Photoshop course in Jalandhar is a focused six-week program for anyone who works with photos or wants to — students, photographers, studio staff, shop owners and aspiring designers.
You start with the interface and the tools, then move to the skills everything in Photoshop depends on: selections, layers, masks and adjustment layers. With those in place you learn portrait retouching, background removal, colour correction and restoring old photos, then text effects and compositing multiple images into one design.
The final week is design work: festival posters, shop banners and a set of social media creatives in the right sizes. You finish with a folder of before-and-after edits and designs you made yourself, a certificate, and a clear path into Illustrator or the full Graphic Design course.
Real photos, real editsIf you can use a computer and a mouse, you can learn Photoshop. The course starts from the first screen and builds up one tool at a time.

It is enough for photo editing and studio roles. For graphic designer jobs, most employers also want Illustrator or CorelDRAW, which is why many students go on to the full Graphic Design course.
Some students take small jobs like background removal, photo edits and social posts. Income is irregular at first, so treat it as a side income until you have regular clients.
We show the built-in AI tools like Select Subject and Generative Fill where they help, but the course focuses on the manual skills you need to fix and control the result.
Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW are the natural next steps. The 4-month Graphic Design course covers all of them plus InDesign and a full portfolio.
Each module ends with a task you finish on your own. Together they become your Photoshop work folder.
Clean up skin, fix lighting and colour, and remove the background from a portrait — keeping it natural.
Repair tears, scratches and fading on an old family photograph.
Design a festive offer post, story and Facebook cover for a local shop.
Composite photos, text effects and branding into a print-ready event or sale poster.
Every technique follows the same three steps, so nothing is left as theory.
The trainer demonstrates one technique on a real photo on the big screen.
e.g. Refining a hair selectionYou apply it to your own photo while the trainer checks your screen.
e.g. Cutting out a portraitA short task at the end proves you can do it on a new photo without help.
e.g. Placing it on a new backgroundYouTube can show you Photoshop tools. What it cannot do is look at your edit and tell you exactly what to fix — which is most of what a trainer in a small Jalandhar batch is for.
Specific feedback on every retouch and design, not just a demo.
Every minute of lab time is spent editing on your own machine.
Small enough that the trainer sees your screen every class.
Portraits, products and old photos like the ones clients bring.
Portfolio help, mock interviews and job drives with 500+ hiring partners.
