This course is intended to provide experience using 4 programs of the Microsoft Office Suite: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access. These programs (especially the first three) are commonly used in the business world and proficiency in using them is valuable.
An additional goal is to provide design skills, particularly with respect to Word and PowerPoint, as these are commonly used programs to create visuals, such as documents, basic pamphlets, and key presentations, which can dramatically influence viewers. Touch typing & email etiquette will be a focus as well, along with originality in conception and execution of design.
