The course is very detailed and the instructors very clear. Although I don't think of myself as a beginner in MS Office, I learned a lot of very useful tips from this beginner's course. I highly recommend this course to both absolute beginners and intermediate users.

By Mahmoud on 3/20/2018

This is a very comprehensive course of excel, PowerPoint and word 2016. The course starts from the basics and works up to relatively advanced level. The presentation is very clear. The course is relatively long and requires self-discipline, but it worth it.

By Pha Vang on 1/17/2018

The exercise 01 require to dig information that is not available. The idea is just learn how to use Excel not solving a problem. Also, the date format took too long and doesn't make sense. For example, change 7.2 to time.

By Elizabeth Eisely on 11/25/2017

The instructor speaks very clearly and is super easy to follow. Her voice is instructive at a good pace and pleasant to listen to. She appears to be very knowledgeable and is very helpful in sharing shortcuts to help speed up the work process.

By al isibor on 11/10/2017

Refreshing for a self taught office user to see the extent of features available in word that I wasn't familiar with and as such never used them to be more productive. Great material and delivery

By Jim Foston on 5/5/2017

I have not been able to locate the working file that goes with the presentation. Therefore, I'm basically auditing but not participating in the course. Cheers, Jim Foston

By Violeta Yordanova on 4/8/2017
