Word 2007 Training

"It's just Word.  Why do I need training?"
If we had a nickel for every time we heard this…well we probably wouldn't be in the business of computer training.
The reality is that everyone needs Word these days.  Pretty much anything beyond minimum wage requires a resume.  And what's the best way to write a resume? With Word!  And if you get into large documents, contracts, proposals, and pretty much any situation where you are creating documents...you need Word.  And not just as a glorified typewriter.  No, need to know about outlining, paragraph formatting, text formatting, bullets and numbering.  Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. I think you get the picture.
If this has been an eye-opener, here's a quick overview of our Word classes:


Word Level 1

Covers the basics:  
  • The Word interface (and what's new in Office 2007)
  • Navigation
  • Formatting Text
  • Tables
  • Page Layout
And lot of other useful things. (Like how to do add the bullets to this list.)


Word Level 2

More detail on formatting and layout:
  • Styles
  • Sections and Columns
  • Labels and Envelopes
  • Templates
  • Tracking Changes
And a whole lot more!


Word Level 3

Covers using advanced features to streamline your workflow:
  • Mail merge
  • Forms
  • Macros
  • Large document tools (table of contents, index, bibliographies, etc.)
So there you have it!  Word is more than just banging away at keys.  It is a powerful tool to help you create the documents you need to do your work.  Or even help you find work.
