What will you learn in this class?
At the end of the class you will be proficient in Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

You will do many things in Word. The lessons are broken into individual steps from one to five (1-5). The steps start at the beginning and take you through formatting, inserting graphics, working with graphics, labels, bullets and customizing bullets, tables and the nitty gritty of cut, copy, paste, spell check, print preview and printing.

In Excel you will learn how to enter text and numbers, save, print, enter formulas, format cells, create charts, and link Excel data to Word and PowerPoint.

In PowerPoint you will create slides, make changes, add images and charts, add motion and sound, time and rehearse a presentation and learn how to take it with you.

This should be fun. You will have projects with each of the lessons. These projects will demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of what you have learned. This should be fun for you and me :-)

I am always available via email.
