Introduction to Microsoft Word

Who Should Take This Seminar: Introduction to Microsoft Word is designed to introduce the student to Microsoft Word, the popular Windows word processing software. Upon completion of this seminar the student will be able to create and edit documents, copy and move information within those documents, save and retrieve files, and print documents. Those uncertain whether this seminar is appropriate for them should call Systemetrics at (401) 275-2200.

Please note: In January, 2005, Systemetrics revised its Microsoft Word offerings. Experience showed us that most students have a basic knowledge of word processing from having created e-mails. Therefore, we revised the Introduction to Microsoft Word and Intermediate Microsoft Word seminars to cover more features and we eliminated the Intermediate Microsoft Word Level 2 seminar.
