Workshops for First Week of Classes

We're kicking off our workshops this week with two offerings of Microsoft Word Basics on Tuesday from 1:00 PM to 1:45 PM and on Saturday from 12:30 PM to 1:15 PM. In this workshop, you will learn basic skills for formatting essays and similar documents. Students will each have a computer to use for practicing skills. Bring a USB/flash drive with you!

For those who are a little more advanced, we will have a Microsoft Word Intermediate workshop on Wednesday from 5:30 PM to 6:15 PM. Go a little beyond the basics in Microsoft Word and learn about bullets, lists, headers and footers, hanging indents, grammar check and spell check, and tables. Students will each have a computer to use for practicing skills.

All students, faculty, and staff are welcome to attend! Workshops are held in HS 150 (the same level as the library).
