PLC School & Training Centre

Microsoft Office™

This suite of programs is commonly used in the work place. There are several elements that all work together within the Windows (or Mac) operating systems.

Note: If you are completely new to Windows we highly recommend that you take an Introduction to Windows course before you start with Microsoft Office.

PLC School and Training Centre focus on the key elements and can teach from the very beginning or help to advance your knowledge. We can accommodate up to Office 2007 to include the graphical user interface called the Fluent User Interface, known as the Ribbon. This replaced the menus and toolbars that were found on previous versions with a new tabbed toolbar. Versions prior to 2007 do not have the same navigation interface.

The Office 2007 course will enable you to learn from an important software update point and put you in good standing to go on and be ready for the latest version which will be released in 2012. There are many elements to this software, some more advanced than others. You can focus on one aspect or you can work through each application to gain a good overview of the main components.

Microsoft Word

This is a widely used word processing software from Microsoft™ It can be used to create all kinds of documents with custom layouts or templates. Many businesses use Word to create and print in-house literature or as the standard software for company files. You can learn about the menu items, managing and saving files, importing images, creating tables and layouts and much more.

This software is ideal if you simply want to produce basic materials and literature. It is a lot less complex than graphic design or layout software and there are many tutorials and exercises to go along with your tuition.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel is a commercial spreadsheet application featuring calculation, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language for Applications.

Many users moved form Lotus 1-2-3 to Excel as the industry standard for spreadsheets. PLC School and Training Centre can offer the version that comes as a program within Microsoft Office 2007. This version of Excel features the ribbon menu update which is not found in earlier versions.

Microsoft Powerpoint

Powerpoint is presentation software and is commonly used for commercial presentations and slideshows.  It is far easier to use than animation software and you can incorporate text and images along with special effects and animated elements. Part of this course involves working with clipart and your own images along with many of the more advanced features.
