This event is a LIVE WEBCAST ONLY program.
The course materials cover Word versions 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, 2021, and 365 for Windows. However, if you are a Mac user, we also have separate manuals for Word for Mac 2016, 2019, and 365 which you can download and follow along. Word for Windows and Word for Mac have slightly different interfaces, but they are capable of most of the same things with some minor exceptions. Sample documents will be available for download in advance so you may follow along with the exercises we will go over in class. The seminar will be taught using Word 365 for Windows.
As an ancillary benefit of attending the training, you will also be entitled to FREE Word technical support for the 3-days immediately following the seminar you attend (rendered via email, phone, and web meeting where appropriate).
If you have specific Word frustrations, bring them to the class and raise them during the discussion. If the instructor doesn’t have time to answer them during the presentation, he’ll make sure you get an answer afterward. Feel free to email your questions in advanced of the program to questions@iclef.org We will do our best to incorporate your submitted questions into the program. Agenda
