CIS 154B
2-day workshop, $215 +tax
9:00 am-4:00 pm
The
primary course objective is to teach the basic skills necessary to use
the Word XP program efficiently. Students will learn how to create documents,
newsletters, and mail merges. Students enrolling in this course should
understand the basic concepts involved in working with a personal computer.
For example, students should be able to use a computer keyboard and mouse,
and be familiar with terms such as RAM, data files, and program files.
In this result-oriented classroom setting, students will work individually
or as part of an informal work-team, and can benefit from the flexibility
of choosing their own learning paths (LearnPro method of teaching).
