During just about every one of my online RoboHelp classes, someone asks the following question about the keyboard shortcuts that I teach during class. "Do you have a list of these keyboard shortcuts?"
Um, no. Although I always promise the group that I'll whip up a list of shortcuts and post them here. Of course, since I'm old(er), I quickly forget to post the shortcuts until the next class, when the cycle repeats. Until now…
The following is courtesy of Adobe's online RoboHelp Help system.

Here are some unedited reviews from students who have recently taken my online RoboHelp class:
"Great class–content and pace were perfect."
"The instructor was incredibly dynamic and personable!"
"I have sat through MANY hours of mandatory training and yours was, by far, some of the best training I've experienced."
"This is really the first online 'class' that I've attended. It was very interactive. I was worried that I would just be sitting here and listening, but it was awesome. Thank you for a great experience."
