Who hasn't used Microsoft Word?
Everybody knows how to use it, but using it properly, or to best effect, is a different matter.
And you don't need to learn much to make a real difference to how you work. Just knowing what's available on the Ribbon can greatly enhance speed and the quality of work. Moving on, learning how to run a Mail merge could transform your productivity. And when you start using advanced formatting, data tables and charts, your work will progress to a new level.
So what would you like to do? Continue as you are, making the most of what you know, or learn best practice, short cuts and transformative new skills?
We run two sets of courses, at Introduction (beginner) to Advanced levels:
Our MS Word 365/2019 courses include pretty well all of the features and functionalities currently available only in the subscription-based Word 365. They are also extremely detailed, with the Introduction course giving you around 7 hours, and the Advanced course a staggering 15 hours, of interactive study.
Our MS Word 2013/2016 courses are a great alternative for a lower-cost option (few of the basics have changed), for anyone looking for a time-efficient "crash course", and, of course, for people who are using older versions of the software.
The CPD mark of approval means that not only have our courses been rigorously assessed in terms of content and quality, but there are options for you to get a CPD Certification certificate to keep.
If you want to learn how to use Microsoft Word properly, doing things right and using the features available, this is the course for you!
You'll begin by learning how to use the interface, then move on to character and paragraph formatting,
Next you'll learn all about lists, tables, styles, graphics, page appearance and page setup so your documents look their best.
Then you'll find out how to use envelopes and labels, followed by the extraordinarily time-saving Mail Merge facility.
There's a section on creating indexes and tables of contents, before the course winds up with reviewing and printing your documents.
By the end of the course you'll have a great grounding in how to use Word quickly, effectively and professionally.
When you create documents, you're working for the reader, who will have expectations. Our Advanced Word course teached you how to meet -- and exceed -- those expectations.
The course begins by teaching you about options for spelling, grammar and AutoCorrect, then shows you how to use different views in Word.
Next, you'll see how to use formulas in tables, use text boxes and break documents, before learning about masters, templates and themes.
We show you how to protect documents, and mark up and track changes. You'll then see how to add reference tools like citations, tables of authority & bibliographies.
The final three sections deal with creating working forms, using macros for automation, and sharing documents with others.
This course will teach you how to be a creator of truly professional documents!
So many people take Microsoft Word for granted. They simply open it up, and get started. Then they struggle with basic mistakes, and take too long to do the simplest things.
Our course teaches you how to get started, understand the interface, and how to use and customize the tabs.
We then show you how to create and save your own documents, and work with text, before ending on how to view and print your work properly.
By the end of the course you'll have a great grounding in how to use Word quickly, effectively and professionally.
For many people, the documents they create in Microsoft Word are going to be seen by others. So whether you're creating them on behalf of an organization, or for yourself to send to other people, you want them to be as high quality as possible.
This course looks at how to manage your documents, before moving on to making them look professional by using formatting, headers and footers, pictures and shapes.
It then shows you how to perform a mail merge for sending documents out in bulk; if you do this, this module alone will pay for the cost of the course many times over.
By the end of this course, you'll be able to use Word to an impressive standard, doing more with it, and in a shorter time, than ever before.
When you create documents, you need to produce what others expect to see. By learning how to use the advanced features of Word, you will be able to do exactly that.
Our course teaches you how to manage and review documents by tracking changes, using comments to guide others, and combine multiple versions into one document.
From there, you'll learn how to use time saving tools. You'll also learn how to add reference tools like a table of contents, bibliographies and indexes.
And there's more: we show you how to enhance your documents with advanced graphics and onjects like Text Boxes, WordArt and SmartArt. Finally you will learn about tables, equations and charts.
You will then be a truly professional creator of documents!
Microsoft Word is the software package where most users are self-taught improvisers.
Sure, your documents may look OK at first glance, but how well do you know the tools that are available to improve the quality and speed of your work? And how you may be taking a long time doing things that could be done in an instant -- if only you knew how?
With our courses, you'll learn about formatting and using styles, adding charts, pictures and tables ... and how using Mail Merge will enable you to send bulk communications with a minimum of setup. Everything you do will be more structured, productive ... and easier too.
You have total flexibility ... you can work through all the course content so you have a thorough knowledge from start to finish. Or treat the content as your "library" - to refer to and learn as you need.
Either way, you'l find all our courses easy to watch and available 24/7 to upgrade your Microsoft Word skills.
