There is a growing list of professions (especially those in design) using multimedia
software, which has brought about an increased prevalence of college courses teaching
computer programs such as Photoshop, InDesign, Flash, and After Effects (U.S. Department
of Labor, 2008). Students of such classes are expected to learn generalities of the programs,
while understanding finer details, so they can apply these skills in the workplace once
training is complete (as shown in the testing site’s online profile for 2009).
