Who Should Take Microsoft Word 2016 Training?

This Word 2016 training is considered foundational-level Microsoft training, which means it was designed for technical and non-technical professionals with no Word experience. With that said, even the most advanced Excel users will learn something they didn’t know from this training.

Productivity tools user training. No matter how often you use Word, or why, if you don’t know all of its buttons, options and functionality, you’re wasting time. Not only that, working with Word can be very frustrating if you don’t understand everything it’s capable of doing for you. Even something as simple as page numbering and auto-creating a table of contents can be done more easily than you may realize. With this training, you’ll be comfortable and confident with Word, no matter the context.

New or aspiring IT professionals. If you’re new to the IT field, you owe it to yourself to be familiar with all the tools you’ll work with throughout your career. It’s easy to dismiss a program like Word because you’ve been using it or something like it for so long, but the word processing program has a lot to offer in terms of efficiency and functionality. You’ll be spending a lot of your career in an office — get training in Word to make sure you’re as familiar with your office responsibilities as you are with your hardware, software and other IT responsibilities.

Experienced IT professionals. If you’ve been working in the IT field for several years, have you started to notice that more and more of your job responsibilities keep you working on paperwork or reports? As you gain seniority in a workplace, you can probably expect that office tools like Word will be how you get your job done. Save yourself time and effort later by getting trained in Word’s functions and options now — you’re going to need to know them eventually.
