Skill Overview

Being confident in Microsoft Word is essential for anyone who either works or aspires to work in an office environment, it’s therefore very important to choose your training programme carefully.

Your studies will cover the basics – from starting Word, to inputting text, saving documents, page breaks, auto-correct, cut and paste, indenting and bullets, page numbers, the use of tables, WordArt and text boxes, clipart, the use of columns through to applying, creating and modifying styles.

This is a self-study programme, so you can choose to learn at your own pace, with support and encouragement provided by our friendly course advisors when you need it.

Should you wish to improve your skills further you might like to consider our Microsoft Office Diploma.
