Microsoft Word Training
Word provides a wealth of features for creating and editing documents. Being familar with the basic concepts of styles and templates is key to becoming more productive and taking advantage of the advanced features. Word also has a macro language which is based on VBA as used by Excel.
We provide graded Word training through our range of standard courses as well as options with fully-tailored content to meet your individual requirements. All aspects of Word are covered.

Word Macros and VBA
If you are interested in getting started with macros we have a Word VBA course which will provide you with a sound understanding of how to use the Visual Basic Environment to create, test and modify macros using VBA. This is a great introduction to one of Word's most under-used features.
At a basic level, Word provides a macro recorder which will create the macros for you but the chances are that, as soon as you discover what they can do, you will want to use them more and more.
You don't need to be an Word expert to work with macros although you should have a good knowledge of Word and be prepared to learn some programming
