Course overview
Software tutorials, process demonstrations and online lessons have become core media for organisations and schools. A good clip takes more than a screen recording: it needs unnecessary parts cut, key points highlighted for viewers, clear audio and captions so everyone can follow. Camtasia is designed for exactly this kind of work, with screen recording and editing in one program.
This course teaches Camtasia 2026, from setting up a project and recording the screen, camera and audio with the Recorder to importing media and editing on the timeline, improving audio, adding annotations, callouts, blurring, zooms, animations and transitions, arranging camera footage with Rev, creating captions and getting to know the AI tools, through to exporting MP4 files and sharing your own tutorial. (2 days, 6 hours per day, 12 hours in total, Beginner level.)

Frequently asked questions
What are the steps to record a screen tutorial with Camtasia?
Prepare a script and close unrelated windows first. Open Camtasia Recorder, choose the full screen, a region or a window, select the microphone and camera if needed and start recording. When you stop, the recording opens in Camtasia Editor, where you trim unwanted parts on the timeline, add callouts or zooms to highlight key points, adjust the audio and add captions, then export the finished video as an MP4 file.
How do the timeline and tracks work in Camtasia?
The timeline lays clips out in time order, with the playhead marking the current position. Tracks are stacked layers on the timeline, and media on a higher track appears over the tracks below, so the main video usually sits low with callouts, text or music on tracks above. Locking a track prevents accidental edits, a magnetic track pulls clips together without gaps, and Split divides a clip at the playhead.
How do you blur private information in a video with Camtasia?
Open the Annotations tab, choose the blur or pixelate shape and drag it onto a track above the video clip. Resize and position it to cover what you need to hide, such as email addresses, phone numbers or customer data, and set its length on the timeline to match when the information appears. If the information moves, add an animation so the blur follows it, and review the whole clip before exporting so no personal data slips through, in line with the PDPA.
Who is the Video Creation with Camtasia 2026 course for, and what should I know beforehand?
It suits teachers, lecturers, trainers, online course creators, training, HR and IT teams who make system tutorials, marketing teams, students and anyone interested in screen recording. No video editing experience is needed. You just need to be able to use a Windows or macOS computer, manage files and install software.
What will I be able to do after the Video Creation with Camtasia 2026 course?
You will be able to set up projects and record the screen, camera and audio with Camtasia Recorder, edit on the timeline with tracks, markers and editing tools, improve audio, add callouts, zooms, animations and transitions, blur private information, arrange camera footage with Rev, create captions, and export MP4 or WebM files for sharing. Participants who complete the training receive a Certificate of Completion with its own number, which can be verified online.
Can the Video Creation with Camtasia 2026 course be run in-house for our team?
Yes. It can be run in-house for your team, with examples adapted to your own work, such as tutorials for your organisation's internal systems or online lessons for staff, and with a standard intro and caption style for every clip. You can request a quotation from this page, or contact us on LINE @itgenius or by phone on 02-570-8449.
