Microsoft Word has changed a lot since its 2007 version. Over the years, several features have greatly improved and some new features have been added to the program. Unfortunately, many people have not taken the time to rethink the way they use Word, resulting in time losses and inefficiency.

If you have to write multiple paged documents, if you need expert tips to efficiently manipulate, edit or revise your texts or if you need to acquire effective writing methods, our focused and task-oriented course will help you gain time and enhance your productivity.
