Frequently asked questions

Still unsure where to begin? Start with Monday’s “Affinity Install Only” and “Affinity Bulletin Settings” classes.

Do I need graphic design experience?

Not at all. The training is made for bulletin editors and focuses only on the practical skills you need for weekly work.

Which session should I attend first?

New to Affinity? Start with Affinity Install Only on Monday, September 28 at 9:30 AM, followed by Affinity Bulletin Settings at 1:00 PM Eastern. Take these classes before Microsoft Publisher sunsets on October 1. If you miss Monday’s classes, a combined 90-minute Install and Setup session is available on Thursday, October 1.

Can I attend a session more than once?

Attend as often as you like. You’re welcome to repeat a live session, bring new questions, or watch a recording when it’s available.

Are classes recorded?

Yes. Available recordings will be added to the learning library after the live sessions.

Can I use my existing Publisher bulletin?

Your Publisher file will not open directly in Affinity. We will show you a reliable process for rebuilding it, reusing your text and images, and creating a better weekly starting point.
