Microsoft Office 2007 Fast! - Part 1 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)

MS Office 2007 is very different from the look and feel of previous versions and this quick new course is aimed at helping you find your way around it as quickly as possible.
The course concentrates on the main three packages in MS Office - Word 2007, Excel 2007 and PowerPoint 2007. Outlook, Access and Publisher are taught in Part 2.
Most new PC's and laptops are now being shipped with Windows Vista.
Therefore users are expected to load the exciting new MS Office 2007 on them.
But the new versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint have different file structures from previous versions, lots more functionality and many of the tried and tested features we know and love have been moved to different places in the toolbars.
In fact, if you're familiar with MS Office 2000 or 2003 and think you can easily find the functions you use most often when you first open 2007, we bet that in many cases you won't. It's like learning a new language (but more fun and a lot less work).
That's why we've developed this short introductory course.
In as little as 6 hours at our training centre, you'll learn your way around the new products as well as finding out how to get the best out of all their new features.
