Microsoft Word Introduction

Course Aims:

This intensive one-day training course is designed to enable users to get to grips with the basic features of Microsoft Word, including a thorough treatment of the new ‘Ribbon’ interface, introduced with Word 2007. It is entirely ‘hands on’, so delegates will get practice in using the software in a real life and practical way.

Who Should Attend?

The course is intended for new users of Microsoft Word who want to become productive in the shortest possible time. Delegates should be proficient in using a PC with the Microsoft Windows operating system, but no prior experience with Word is required.
