Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 ACE Exam Aid

Exam Code: 9A0-405

Product Description

The exam aid is based on the multiple-choice question format. The content is divided into Study, Review and Practice modes in order to make it easier to learn, and to absorb the information.

The topics recommended for study by Adobe are comprehensively covered. Extended answers, and relevant hyperlinks to the application's Help pages are included for further study should you require it.

You can use the exam aid to verify and/or obtain knowledge required to pass the exam, track your progress, and gain confidence by practising in an environment very similar to the official exam.

Please note, this exam aid does not cover features specific to Photoshop CC 2015.5, and later. This is because the exams are frozen upon release, so you do not need to know the newest features in order to pass the 9A0-405 exam (please see Blog).
