During this two-week instructor-led, live online course, you participate in a two-hour class every Monday and Wednesday through the Internet. You master the course content through real-time lectures, simulations or demos, and slide presentations, and can join class discussions via text chat communication. If you miss any of the four live sessions, you can view the archived session. Between the live sessions, you complete instructional assignments.
You do not need MS Word 2007 to participate in the class. Our instructors use cutting-edge technology to allow you to simulate use of the application. However, we do recommend obtaining MS Word 2007 before the course begins because you will need the software to complete your assigned learning exercises and because having the software will help enrich your learning experience.
