Course Content

This free online course will teach you how to use the various Microsoft Word options to their maximum potential. Even though Microsoft Word offers hundreds of valuable functions, most of us only use a small portion of them. Consider how much simpler our daily work would be if we used even a fraction of Microsoft Word's features. This course will introduce you to the world of MS Word by demonstrating how to do more work with less effort. Use the advice in this course to your advantage and learn how to use this program successfully.
