Frequently asked questions
- How long does the Computer Skills: Windows and Office course take and what does it cost?

In one day you learn the basics of Windows, the internet, email, Word and Excel. Course materials and a certificate of attendance are included. The current price can be found on the course page.
- Who is the Computer Skills Windows and Office course suitable for?
- This course is suitable for anyone with little to no experience of Windows and Office. In one classroom day you learn the basics: using the mouse, opening programs, using the internet, sending email, creating a text in Word and making a calculation in Excel. No prior knowledge required. An ideal stepping stone to follow-up courses, such as Outlook Basics.
- Do you need prior knowledge for the Computer Skills Windows and Office course?
- No, no prior knowledge is required. The course is specifically intended for people with little to no experience of computers, Windows and Office. In one classroom day you learn the basics step by step: using the mouse, opening programs, browsing the internet, emailing and creating simple documents in Word and Excel. All you need to bring is the willingness to learn.
- Which topics are covered in the Computer Skills Windows and Office course?
- In the Computer Skills Windows and Office course you learn the basics of working with a computer. You cover using Windows, the mouse and programs, the internet and email, creating a text in Word, doing a calculation in Excel, and saving, moving, copying and pasting files. You also pick up practical do's and don'ts for everyday use.
- Do you receive a certificate after the Computer Skills Windows and Office course?
- Yes, on completion of the Computer Skills Windows and Office course you receive a certificate of participation. The course is taught in a classroom setting in a small group, guided by an experienced trainer. The certificate shows that you have mastered the basics of Windows and Office and are ready for follow-up courses.
- Is the Computer Skills Windows and Office course classroom-based or online?
- The Computer Skills Windows and Office course is taught in a classroom at a Learnit location. You follow the course in a small group, together with an experienced trainer who guides you step by step. Classroom learning works well if you have little experience with computers, because you can ask questions straight away and practise together.
- When should you choose this classroom course instead of learning on your own via YouTube or a free online basics course?
- Teaching yourself via YouTube works if you already know where to start and you don't mind working out which video matches your version of Windows or Office. On this course you are in a small group with a trainer who looks over your shoulder as soon as something doesn't work. That saves frustration if you are still unsure about the mouse, saving files or the difference between a browser and a program. The course gives you structure: from computer basics to Windows, the internet, email, Word and Excel. Choose it if you want a solid starting point and then want to move on to, for example, a follow-up Outlook or Word course.
- What is the difference between this basic course and a specific Office course such as Word or Excel Basics?
- The Computer Skills course focuses on the absolute basics: how a computer and Windows work, how to use the mouse, start up programs, save and move files, send email and look up information on the internet. Word and Excel are covered briefly, only to show what you can do with them. A Word Basics or Excel Basics course assumes you can already work with Windows and goes deep into one program: formatting, templates, formulas, tables. This course is therefore a stepping stone. If you have little or no experience with computers, this is where you start. If you already work routinely with Windows and want to become better at one Office program, choose the specific course straight away, such as Outlook Basics, Word Basics or Excel Basics.
