Our instructors can also provide bespoke consultancy either at your offices, or online. Please enquire for further details.
Recommended Learning Path
To attain maximum proficiency with Microsoft Word, we recommend delegates follow a linear path from Introduction, through Intermediate to Advanced level, though it isn't necessary to attend courses where a delegate has equivalent skills or experience.

Half Day Courses
Duration: 3 Hours
Any of the one day courses above can be split into half day courses. You can either cover half of the course content in a one off half day session, or complete the one day curriculum over two half day sessions. Please enquire, for further information.
Espresso Courses
Duration: 1 to 2 Hours
Need to learn something fast? An Espresso course could be the answer!
You can have a half day or a full day of Espresso courses. There are two key differences between this and normal half or full day courses. Firstly, you can mix different products in the same day, so you could have a Word session followed by a PowerPoint or Excel session. Secondly, the delegates can be different for each session - so everyone only has to attend sessions that are meaningful for them.
