Project Management Workshops  Microsoft Office Suite Software Training

Microsoft Office Suite Software Training

Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, Access and Project are very powerful tools, most people that   use them only touch the surface of what could be possible. If a task is repetitive, why not      automate it using the tools you already possess in the Microsoft Office Suite.

Excel has many, many applications beyond just a spreadsheet program.  Students are shown several applications and then encouraged to think of the possibilities that could exist for their own applications. PowerPoint is a tool that can be “over used” very easily.  Students will learn the do’s and the don'ts in it’s proper use.  Access is a step up from Excel as a database tool.  It can be very challenging in the when a student first uses it.  But with practice the possibilities are almost endless.  Project is a very good aide in project planning.  It can help organize tasks and make effective scheduling a breeze.  It is as easy as 1-2-3 for students to produce        successful project plans.

Training in any or all of these applications can be customized for your employees and your organization.    1, 2 or 3 day training formats are available to meet your training needs.
