These three PDF documents were created to ease the transition to Premiere Pro from Final Cut Pro and Avid Media Composer, but they’re also very good overviews for anyone getting started with Premiere Pro:

Karl Soule has a video on Adobe TV that recommends various resources for learning Premiere Pro if you already know Final Cut Pro. It’s the first video in a series with Karl and Kevin Monahan about making the transition. Additional videos for editors making the transition can be found in the Adobe TV show “Moving to Adobe Premiere Pro”.

Video2Brain provides a video training series, Premiere Pro for Avid Editors, to give Avid users the information needed to make the transition to Premiere Pro.

Rich Harrington, Robbie Carman, and Jeff Greenberg have written an excellent book for professional video editors to get to know Premiere Pro: Editor’s Guide to Adobe Premiere Pro. This book and DVD include detailed chapters and movies about exchanging projects and footage between Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro and Avid Media Composer:

Much more information about making the transition from Final Cut Pro or Avid Media Composer to Premiere Pro is here:
“Switching to Premiere Pro CS5.5″

Many more getting started resources are here:

    Where is the Overview of Premiere Pro for Avid Media Composer users PDF?

    Is it available anywhere?

    Thanks for posting these! Just came into a job where everything is Adobe Premium Production. Exactly what I was looking for and perfect timing!

    Thank you Adobe for posting this on the official Premiere Twitter feed. I have a feeling that you will be enjoying the company of many former Final Cut Pro editors in the near future.

    Thank you Adobe and the Premiere (and CS5) teams. I look forward to a new and perhaps better integrated software package than Final Cut Studio. Please continue the momentum on development :-)
