Almost everyone who uses Microsoft Word uses it inefficiently
Word is an incredibly powerful package, this course aims to show you how to use the full power of Word. Using the techniques covered in this course, we aim to automate all the laborious tasks such as formatting numbering, indexing etc to produce a consistent document that meets the University guidelines with the minimum amount of effort on your behalf.
When you are writing, the only part of your writing that should not be automated is the content itself!
The course lasts for 2 half days usually delivered on consecutive days. We have IT training labs on L4 of the Library. We are currently experimenting with running this course as an evening class as well, and expect to release new evening dates if the first (fully booked) course runs well.
