Advanced Microsoft Word Bootcamp
August 2019
Advanced Microsoft Word Bootcamp on Styles
In this class, you'll learn the steps necessary to deconstruct and rebuild any Word document (no matter how badly it is messed up) so the document works perfectly and is effortless to edit. If you're already experienced with Word but want to take your skills to the next level, this is the class you need. This is not a beginner class. Both lawyers and staff will benefit from this class.
Bring your laptop!
The sample files we use for the in class exercises will be made available in advance for download so that you can follow along during the program.
Programs will be taught in Word for Windows 365/2019. However, the manual and class materials cover Word 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019 and 365. Manuals for Word for Mac 2011 and Word for Mac 2016/19/365 are also available for download. Word for Windows and Word for Mac have different interfaces, although they’re capable of most of the same things with some exceptions.
