Hello

I am Jim Cormier a Graphic Designer, the education & curriculum developer and a freelance CorelDRAW trainer for Square One Graphics in Colfax. CA. I have been using CorelDRAW since version 3.0 and I am extremely proficient in the use of both CorelDRAW and Corel PhotoPAINT. I am currently working with Corel X3 Graphics Suite but can instruct in earlier versions of the software as well.

All the graphics you see displayed on this web site were created exclusively with CorelDRAW & CorelPAINT and years of experience.

If you have recently purchased CorelDRAW or have been using it for quite a while but need help I can help you Master the Power of CorelDRAW.

I was the founder & president of ACE Aspiring Corel Enthusiasts, a local CorelDRAW users group, for over five years and loved sharing my knowledge with other Corel users from all skill levels. I also have tought Corel lessons at Computer Utilization in Rancho Cordova, CA as well as the Training Source Sacramento, CA providing training to organizations like California Department of Fish & Game, the California Highway Patrol as well as other State and Federal Agencies. I am currently specializing in freelance graphic design fand web site design for all branches of our nation's Military.

If you have been looking around on the Internet, in your local phone books or in your local paper you have quickly found out that finding available training in CorelDRAW, in your area or especially within the greater Sacramento, CA area, is difficult, if not impossible, to find. I always tell my students to remember that "Mastering the Power of CorelDRAW is like eating an elephant, you can only do it one bite at a time."

I currently offer one-on-one classes held either in my office or in your home or office, I currently restrict my training to include the greater Sacramento, CA area only. If I travel to your home or office an additional charge is added to my hourly rate to cover the cost of gas & mileage. If you would like to take advantage of my years of experience with CorelDRAW call me today to arrange your very own private one-on-one lessons.

If you get stuck trying to do something in CorelDRAW of PAINT, and need some help, give me a call at 530-637-4700 or drop me an E-MAIL and I will try and help you at no cost as long as the questions and calls are brief. Please if you do call please do it between 9-5 Monday through Friday (PST) California time. Where else but at Square One Graphics are you going to find an offer like this?




I have just started an
On-Line CorelDRAW Users forum called The CorelDRAW Zone. This forum is made possible by using PalTalk. This service allows me to host a room open to CorelDRAW users from around the world. We will be able to voice communicate in the forum and help each other solve our CorelDRAW design problems. From time-to-time I will post a Tutorial on the CorelDRAW Zone page in Pdf format for download. We will then work through the Tutorial Live On-Line with CorelDRAW or Photo-PAINT open.

If this sounds like somethink you would be interested in drop me an e-mail
and let me know. PalTalk is a free download from
PalTalk. The Free Download
version comes with alot of popups so I suggest once you find out if you like Pal Talk that you subscribe yearly to the service for $39.95. Check it out. You aren't going to find a support source like the CorelDARW Zone anywhere for a cost of just $39.95 per year.



I have also established a new CorelDRAW Users Group on Yahoo Groups. Plug in your e-mail address below and become part of our new group.

 When you initially click on any of the movie links below a script will check to see if you have the CCP player installed on your computer and if you never downloaded a CCS movie before you won't have the Player installed on your hard drive. If it doesn't find the CCP Player a script will run and walk you through the installation of the CCP Player. You can Download the CCP Player HERE and just install the CCP Player before viewing any of the Tutorial movies or any other Tutorial movies on our site. NOTE: The movies will open on a separate web page. When you have finished viewing the movie simply close that page and return to our site.
These movies are created at a resolution of 800x600. They are best viewed at that resolution of higher. The web page, containing the movie player, will load quickly when you first click on your desired movie link. Depending on the size of the movie file it may take a several minutes for the movie to Stream Down and actually begin playing on that page depending of course on the speed at which you are connecting the internet. SO BE PATIENT PLEASE...

  If you have any problems getting the movies to play for you or if you are having problems with following my instructions on the movie feel free to drop me an E-MAIL or call me at 530-637-4700. If you have a particular subject you would like to see us do a movie on LET US KNOW!
