We have created a variety of courses on After Effects which are offered through LinkedInLearning (previously Lynda.com).

After Effects Classic Courses
We are re-releasing After Effects online training courses that LinkedIn Learning have dropped from their site because they were a few years old. As any user of Adobe software knows, even though new features get added all the time along with the occasional user interface refresh, the core of the program remains essentially the same – so there’s still useful content in many of these old movies. We are posting them on our PVC Blog along with commentary about how a feature may have changed from its original release.
Follow our Facebook page for links to new uploads.
AE Apprentice Curated Collection
Our After Effects Apprentice online training course is organized in a handy Collection. Bookmark the Collection, and you'll be able to easily following along all 19 courses.
