Course Structure
This course is broken down into twelve lessons to take you through each of the tools that PowerPoint 2007 offers the user. Each lesson will cover learning goals and each goal is associated with one aspect of PowerPoint 2007. You will be able to confirm your knowledge and understanding through a series of mini quizzes at the end of each Lesson. Answers to the quiz are at the back of this course. We recommend that you practice with PowerPoint 2007 to gain the best understanding of each lesson.
Each lesson will also include hyperlinks for you to find further information online along with hot tips. As with all software, not everything runs smoothly all the time in PowerPoint 2007 and in each lesson we will also alert you to common errors or "pitfalls" to watch out for.
Before you begin:
If you are a current user of Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 or an earlier version, before you download 2007 we recommend you uninstall these programs. PowerPoint 2007 may not download properly if you are operating a previous version.

Student Testimonials
- "I used to do my PowerPoint presentations in the past but they were very plain only used bullets and no color or animation. Now I can apply all of them to engage my audience and make my presentations more engaging." -- Graciela S.
- "I felt this instructor was well organized and timely. I've taken on-line courses which were too easy. For instance, I recently took one which was supposed to take 14 months to complete and I finished it as quickly as I received the course work...I actually found the exams the most helpful. They were used for exactly what exams are supposed to be for, i.e., to test knowledge and give feedback on what needs to be reviewed. The exams were fun to take. I also enjoyed the assignments to test in a practical way what was being presented." -- Ruth M.
- "The instructor is obviously an expert on this subject. Only someone who knows the material thoroughly would be able to pick out the basic points to make a cogent overview of PowerPoint. I like these Universal Class computer courses better than any of the ones I have tried." -- Roseann G.
- "Instructions with diagrams were most helpful. Explanations are direct and to the point. Instructor gives praise and encouragement. I like that." -- Irene K.
- "This was a great experience-not just a walk in the park! Truly full of useful information." -- Andrea P.
