Microsoft Word training FAQs

What is the MO-111 certification exam?

The MO-111 is the exam for the Microsoft certification called “Microsoft Word Expert (Microsoft 365 Apps)”. It’s also one of the necessary exams for earning the Microsoft Office Specialist: Expert certification. A Microsoft Word Expert has deep control over formatting, automation (macros), and document structure. The MOS: Expert certification proves extensive familiarity with the complete Microsoft 365 suite of productivity tools and applications.

How much does a Microsoft Word certification cost?

It costs $100 to attempt the MO-111, the Microsoft Word certification exam. If you want to earn the complete MOS: Expert, you’ll have to pass five different certification exams, each of which cost $100. That means for $500, you can certify as a Microsoft 365 productivity expert, an investment that can pay off with a new role or promotion. Courses like this one are designed specifically to make sure you’re prepared to pass, and don’t have to retake any exams.

Does advanced Microsoft Word training pay off?

Yes. Professionals who can produce polished, accurate documents quickly are valuable in roles like project management, administration, technical writing, and operations. In addition to that, expert Word skills save time, reduce errors, and translate into a much better job experience, plus better job opportunities and higher-paying roles.

Is the MO-111 exam hard?

MO-111 is more challenging than the Word Specialist exam because it focuses on rarely used tools and advanced features. You’ll be tested on indexing, automation, longform document management, and precision formatting. With guided practice in this course, you’ll be ready for both the exam and real-world expert workflows.

How will learning Microsoft Word benefit you?

If you work with long and complex documents, Microsoft Word training ensures you’re never drowning in buttons, options, and tools. If you’ve ever fought with your document’s formatting, struggled with page layouts and numbering, or lost track of which menu you’re in, a Microsoft Word course like this is for you. You’ll learn how to automate more of your workflows, and produce clean, professional results every time.

Who is Microsoft Word training for?

This course is for anyone who deals with complex or mission-critical documents, from office professionals, to analysts or project managers. If you already know Word basics and want to become a true expert, take this course to prepare for the Microsoft Word certification, and increase your confidence in Microsoft Word.

What our learners say

Awesome, Top notch, I am super excited and thankful for CBT Nuggets. I am starting to get addicted to CBT Nuggets. I hope that there's no cure!!!

When learning a new technology, people sometimes build a wall that complicates the learning process because of the unknown. I like tearing down that wall — and having people fall in love with that technology.
Lalo Nunez | CBT Nuggets trainer since 2020
Having access to on-demand labs that I could spin up instantly was very helpful. I didn’t have to have a home environment with a bunch of virtual machines spun up. Or worry about destroying things.
