Microsoft Office Word

Lack of training holding you back?Probably the most widely-used application in the world, Microsoft Office Word is an amazing piece of software that has progressed beyond belief from the document processor it was designed as.

Despite being the default e-mail editor in many organisations, Word is still much maligned by those who " never write letters." Word is so flexible, in fact, that it can cope with just about any form of written work, and has built in templates for, among other things, legal pleadings and even a thesis!

Our courses come in three varieties; Introduction, Intermediate and Advanced, and are available for 2000, XP, 2003 and 2007.
