We offer a wide range of courses and learning resources in the four main Microsoft Office packages - Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access.
We offer courses and learning resources in Microsoft Office that are specifically designed for undergraduate and taught postgraduate students at all levels. These include how to write and present your assignment or dissertation in Word, how to process and present numerical data in Excel, and how to use PowerPoint to accompany a presentation or talk. Please note, however, that Microsoft Access database courses are not available to taught students.
