Microsoft Word 2007 Online Training

Stand out from the crowd by creating the perfect documents quickly and cleanly in Microsoft Word 2007, the world’s leading word processing software. With lessons divided into basic, intermediate and advanced chapters, this online learning course goes well beyond the levels of training offered by many books and classes.

Start at the beginning, learning to enter and format text and build step by step until you are comfortable programming basic functions using macros and XML. Lessons cover every facet and tool, and the self-paced structure ensures that students can spend as much or as little time as they require becoming familiar with each.

Don’t be content just using Word 2007 for typing letters, when this course can teach you so much more! Save time by learning professional skills like mail merging to automatically create individually addressed letters and envelopes. See how easy it is to automatically transform your information into tables, charts and graphics, and learn to automatically insert a table of contents.
