After my post I was thinking the OP was looking for a program to edit videos, not just make animated presentations from individual photos using Pro Show. So Premier Elements would be a good choice there.

Welcome to the forum!

Among all the other recommendations, Lynda, is a very good resource. Look for Lynda.com. This is a subscription based, online, educational resource; however, many public libraries---county and city---provide the service to their patrons for free. You will find many professionals there with their courses on Lightroom, Photoshop, Photography, and much more. Julianne Kost, Ben Long, Chris Orwig, Tim Grey, Brent Winebrenner, Brian O'Neil Hughes, and many more are there. Depending upon the agreements with a given library, you may be able to download the practice files that offered to those who typically subscribe individually, but, if not, then it really is not a problem to follow along, watch, learn, and repeat. The benefit of these cousses is that they are structured instruction from beginning to end. Some even give you assignments to try on your own. Although, it will lack the interaction of an in-person instructor, it is, in my opinion, the next best thing and some of the instructors take that into consideration and strive to achieve something close with assignments and quizzes.

Check out the libraries around you. Their websites will typically offer this under such headings as Online Courses, Interactive Courses, Continuing Education, etc. I will say that it was intuitively easy to find on my county library website but not so much so on the city library website.

Success be with you and always feel free to ask for help either in the forum or private message.

Laura Shoe is NOT the lightroom queen. The Lightroom Queen is Victoria Bramton.

Laura Shoe ( https://laurashoe.com/learn-lightroom-5-6-classic-7-video-training/ ) is very superior for my Learning Style. (I tried both.) She is logical sequential in her lessons. She starts from the Beginning on adding pictures, then thoroughly goes through each lesson building on the previous lessons. She includes files you can download so you can work along side of her. You can download her lessons or get the CD/DV. Mine cost $49. One of the best purchases I have ever made. Damn, if she only would add Photoshop to Instruction.

The following is a bargain at $7.00

Terry White has some good tutorials.

In my opinion it is important to get files of the pictures used in training. You learn by doing what the instructor does.

I have been in the same boat. There are a number of paid online training courses that you should avoid unless they are on sale. Most paid online courses will have a ridiculous high price that later in the the month that will drop from $199 or higher to $29 or similar amounts. If you decide on one please choose one that includes practice files. You can then practice along with the instructor. If you have a laptop and another computer, you can work alongside with the instructor.
Check to see if the program fits with your learning style.
For me, I found Laura Shoe's Program (Laura Shoe Digital Training) the best because she has a very logical sequential manner of teaching. She starts with the basics, covers the topic thoroughly, and then moves the next topic that builds on the previous lesson. She includes files of the exact pictures she uses in her lessons. You can download her program or buy the CD/DVD. Either way you do not have to be online. I go it for $49. One of the best program investments I have made. I do repeat the this was because it fit my leaning style.

Here is a bargain for $7

Oops! You’re right about Laura Shoe & Victoria Brampton. My bad.

Lynda is a great recommendation not only for photography, but for things like Microsoft Office, how to navigate Windows 10, i phones and much more. Hopefully your local library offers it free. I simply put my library card in a logon screen and use it to my heart's content

Julieanne Kost’s videos at:

She’s Adobe’s finest, as far as I’m concerned. Lots of free information can be found on her site...

I am relatively new to PS and LR as well, but I’ve found that with tutorials and experimentation I’ve been able to do a few simple things. Continue on!

If you have a Mac:

If you want to create videos and add music to them: after you process them in LR load into Photos. It’s the easiest way I have found to make videos

I completely agree. Unfortunately I found out about Anthony after I signed up and paid for another online video course which I have to admit was pretty good. In fact the Anthony videos go to more detail than the one I paid for! The Adobe website also has some nice tutorials. Don't put out any money for ANY tutorial until you have tried Anthony.

check out Nick Kelsh at How to Photograph your Life. He does online classes and his class for Lightroom is for beginners and will get you started before yo develop bad habits. Facebook How to Photograph your life I think will reach the right people and he's very reasonable priced and fun.

I'm in the same place; I started shooting RAW+JPEG in March, but have been too busy to do any PP. Lots of good suggestions have already been posted; thanks to all. I'm going to start watching the Adobe videos tomorrow.

There are lots of "complete" courses on Lightroom Classic and Photoshop CC. Lynda.com and KelbyOne.com are excellent subscription sites.YouTube is excellent for specific topics or functions. I hight recommend that you get past the file management system of Lightroom before you edit a bunch of images. I never did like the LR file management system so I used my own, and still do. Lightroom is an awesome editing program and you can do close to 100% of your editing right there. When you want to get into composites and more complicated construction where you need layers then Photoshop is seamless. Don't be afraid of Lightroom and experiment with it.

My personal complete, start-to-finish, organized course is from Matt Kloskowski. He worked with/for Kelby and later ON1. He is now on his own. When you buy his course (excellant) course, you install it on your computer as a collection of MP4 videos. If it is a laptop you can enjoy some learning anywhere you are.
