ABOUT

 Association of CorelDRAW® Professionals

ACDRP is the most powerful tool not in your CorelDRAW toolbox! It's your one-stop source for ideas, tips, support, training, news, jobs, discounts, and community. If you've got a question about CorelDRAW, then ACDRP is where you'll find your answer!

ACDRP was founded to provide training in CorelDRAW techniques, and also to provide resources for putting your CorelDRAW graphics skills to profitable use. That's why the magazine's tagline is "The Entrepreneurial Magazine for CorelDRAW Users."  It's this combination of extensive education with business ideas and opportunities that makes ACDRP, and its publications CorelDRAWHelp and CorelDRAWHelp E-News, unique.

ACDRP was founded in 2006 by John & Judy McDaniel, Authorized Corel Training PartnersTM, in collaboration with long-time graphic products industry publishers and association managers, Mike & Steve Neer. With 12 years of working together to provide CorelDRAW training and news to graphics-related businesses throughout North America and internationally, they felt there was an endless need for more knowledge not only about CorelDRAW but also about making money with it.

What was needed was an organization that could draw on the talents and skills of trainers worldwide, provide regular vehicles for communication among users, and connect users to industry suppliers that could help them be more profitable. ACDRP is designed to meet those needs -- and more. As membership grows, so will the services offered by ACDRP.

With the help of Corel Corp., and the support of many industry suppliers, ACDRP is now inviting CorelDRAW users worldwide to become members and maximize their use of CorelDRAW.

ACDRP's overall mission is to create an enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and profitable community of CorelDRAW users. We invite you to check out all the information on this site, and become an ACDRP member today!

The association was formed through the synergy of two Corel Training PartnersTM, John & Judy McDaniel, and the former publisher of Graphics Pro magazine and director of the Graphic Products Association, Mike Neer, assisted by his brother Steve Neer.  They have enlisted the support of other trainers, industry suppliers, and Corel Corp. to help promote the association and make it an exciting and practical resource for all CorelDRAW users.
