Microsoft Publisher can be an amazing tool. It can help us complete impressive tasks in a fraction of the time, and help to accomplish things that we could never have done on our own. But you have to know how to use this program.
This course will show you how. Through a series of 13 different lessons, you will familiarize yourself with the program and its capabilities. By starting at the beginning and working your way through you will cover everything from opening a new publisher document, learn how to add punch to otherwise boring copy, learn how to create different mailing lists, learn how to create brochures and other business material, learn how to create a website, learn how to highlight important facts, or add other design elements, and much more.
Microsoft Publisher 2007 provides a great source of templates, tips and layout ideas which will cut your design time in half. Having this knowledge will make the design process shorter, and help curb unnecessary frustration. By the end of this course you will be able to create material ready for a professional presentation.
The latest version of Microsoft Publisher is used, but students will not need a copy of this program in order to benefit from this course. It will be of use to anyone from the brand new Publisher user to the person who is simply looking for a little refresher.
