How long does it take to learn Photoshop professionally?

At BALC, learning Adobe Photoshop professionally typically takes 2 to 3 months of structured training. This timeframe is ideal for beginners to gain hands-on experience with the core tools, techniques, and workflows used in professional graphic design, photo editing, and digital art.

Our certified Photoshop course is divided into foundation and advanced modules, ensuring that students not only understand the interface but also master advanced tools such as layer masking, retouching, blending modes, smart objects, and more. Classes are conducted by industry experts with a focus on real-world projects, making the learning process faster and more effective.

For students who can dedicate 2 to 3 hours per day, this course duration is sufficient to become job-ready or start freelancing confidently. However, for working professionals attending weekend batches, the course may extend up to 3.5 months.

To accelerate your learning, BALC also provides:

Beyond the course, becoming a Photoshop expert may take additional months of continuous practice and specialization, especially in fields like UI/UX design, digital painting, or advertising.
