Learn how to format text, use paragraph dialog boxes, add indents, work with tables and columns, and do more with your documents.

This class utilizes Microsoft Word 2021 and the examples will be shared in that version. If you do not have this version, feel free to follow along.

Session 1: Learn about the different versions of Word and similar programs, how to create and save Word files, and get familiar with the Word interface.

This class is a series of on-demand videos that you can learn from at your own pace. We recommend starting with the overview of the class, then proceeding through each of the lessons. You need to have speakers on the device that you are using.
