Microsoft Word Introduction/Intermediate
Duration: 2 days
Overview:
MS Word is a full-featured word processing program with rudimentary desktop publishing capabilities that has become the most widely used word processing application on the market. Microsoft Word is a powerful word processing program that you can use to produce professional-looking documents. Word allows you to easily combine text, spreadsheets, and graphics into a single application. You can also use Word to create your own Web pages. Word’s assortment of pull-down menus, toolbars, and buttons make learning and using it remarkably easy.
At the end of Aspect Training’s Microsoft Word Introduction/Intermediate two day course you will feel more confident using Word and be able to create a document from scratch. Understanding and using some of the built in layout and text editing functionality will enable you to produce far more striking and effective documentation in your work and home Word environments. Documents that you create will be easier to read and look more presentable. You will be able to divide a document into sections and columns, to format tables and populate them with data directly from Excel spreadsheets. You will also learn how to add recurrent data to documents in a series such as page numbers and headers. Finally you will be shown how to prepare labels and envelopes, add your company logo to a letter and set up a template for future mail.
