Microsoft Word Training

A lot of people use Word and know it on the basic level for writing documents, letters and CVs.

There is however a much more advanced level in Word, one useful for anyone who creates larger documents, manuals, containing headings, Tables of Content, cross references. Word can even be used to create user input forms where only specified parts can be edited with user information and the rest of the document protected from change or deletion.

Our highly skilled trainers will show you how to get the best of Microsoft Word and create clean, professional looking documents that can be easily updated whenever required.
