- Seminar will be taught in Office 2016 (which is the same as Office 365). The course manual works for Office 2007, 2010, and 2013.
- Are you a Mac user? Please let us know ahead of time; We can send you a Word for Mac 2011/Word for Mac 2016 manual so you can follow along. Word for Windows and Word for Mac have different interfaces, although they’re capable of most of the same things with some exceptions. Likewise, while there is not a separate Mac manual for Excel and Outlook, the interfaces are similar enough that Mac participants can easily follow along.
