Want to know how you could use these skills in your classroom, Adobe has a great site called [|Adobe For Academics] that has specific examples of how this can be adapted for almost any class being taught.

If you want to go deeper and more detailed in any of these products, Adobe has a great website of videos called [|Adobe TV]. For each program, it has a different series of videos to teach you the basic and advance skills you may desire, included a Learn Adobe series that focuses on one skill at a time. Most of the videos are samples from other video training programs, so there is not a smooth flow from one topic to another.
