Master Word, from basic to advanced, at your own pace and from any location. This e-learning combines two modules with videos and assignments, and optionally covers working with Copilot in Word.
Description
In this e-learning you get to know Word at your own pace and build up your skills step by step. You start with the basics: opening documents, entering text, formatting and setting up the page layout. After that you move on to tables, images, graphic objects and setting up mailings. Optionally, the course also covers working with Microsoft 365 Copilot in Word.
The bundle consists of two modules with more than a hundred lesson videos in total and just as many assignments. After each topic you check your knowledge, so you only move on once the material has sunk in. You follow the course entirely online, at the time and place that suits you.
Topics
- Opening, editing and saving documents
- Selecting, cutting, copying and pasting text

Result
After this e-learning you work smoothly in Word. You create and edit documents, handle the formatting and set up the page layout. You add tables, images, drawing objects and charts in the right place in your text. You set up mailings with variable fields and conditional text, and you print envelopes and labels. Optionally, you also know how to use Copilot in Word to write and edit more quickly.
Target audience
This e-learning is intended for anyone who wants to master (or re-master) the basic operations in Word and then progress to the more advanced functions. Whether you are starting from scratch or want to refresh and expand your knowledge: you work at your own pace on a solid Word foundation and additional skills such as tables, images and mailings. Optionally, you also get to know Word in combination with Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Teaching method
You follow this course entirely online through e-learning. Each module offers dozens of short instructional videos, followed by exercises in which you immediately apply what you have seen. Only once you have sufficiently mastered a topic do you move on to the next. This way you build up your knowledge step by step, at your own pace and in a place that suits you.
You have access to the platform for six months from the start. You can stop along the way: your progress is saved automatically, so you can pick up later exactly where you left off. Optionally, during the course you can also spend time on Word in combination with Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Prior knowledge
You do not need any prior knowledge. Can you handle a computer and do you know how to open and save a file? Then you can get started straight away. A laptop with an internet connection is all you need to follow the e-learning.
Comments
You work through this e-learning at your own pace and have 6 months' access to the platform. Optionally, you can also look at Word in combination with Microsoft 365 Copilot.

Consider planning and communication, for example, or identifying and agreeing the objectives and content of the training. Or differences in level, feedback mechanisms and safeguarding.

What others say about this course
“Good training, useful and recommendable”
“Good, useful training course with plenty of handy tips & advice.”
"I am/was used to following a course or programme as part of a group. With this method, you get started on your own after a brief round of introductions. The coursebook is clearly and logically structured. You also get to take the CD-ROM home with you so you can practise more if needed. You decide your own pace and which parts you give extra attention and want to practise further. Even though I always learn a lot from others when topics are covered and discussed in a classroom setting, I found this method very useful."
“The fact that you work with your own material and that the trainer can help you well with it really appealed to me, as did working practically with the subject matter.”
“For years I hated the word processing programme ‘Microsoft Word’. I felt unwell at the very thought of having to write a letter in ‘Word’ with photos, tables and so on. I would sooner write a letter in Excel, because I could handle that better. That fear has now gone; it was simply a lack of knowledge. I had never really taken the time to get to grips with the programme. I started out using the wrong order of work when setting up a document, and that resulted in frustration with all the consequences that entails.”
"I took the "Word 2010 Advanced" course. On top of the basic knowledge I already had of Word, this is a valuable addition to my daily work at the secretariat. I was trained years ago on the Office 2003 package, and Office 2010 does differ quite a lot from the 2003 version, which means it often takes more time to find out where they have hidden that one button or function this time. I will certainly be putting a lot of it into practice and I learned many new things (including things I thought I already knew well!)."
“The individual way of teaching and working through the material at your own pace was experienced as very pleasant.”
“A pleasant course for learning the basics of Word at your own pace and according to your own wishes. And you can always ask questions.”
“The Word Tips and Tricks course makes you aware of everything that is possible for adding tidiness and creativity to your documents in practice. Knowing what the options are is a first step. Remembering everything is harder. But you can look that up, and we should still be getting an overview of the topics covered. So that step by step you can learn, use and retain whatever applies to you. The trainer was excellent!”
“The Word Basics course is a course for anyone who works with Word in any way or is about to start. The course gives you the confident feeling that you know Word after 2 days. Not everything, of course – that comes in a follow-up course. But for anyone who needs to be able to write a letter, this comes highly recommended!”
“A useful course for brushing up and refreshing my knowledge, and I have certainly benefited from it. Now all that remains is to put it into practice and get things properly organised internally!”
“The course gave me far more than I expected. It's going to save me a lot of time in practice, so I can definitely recommend it!”
“This is a good course for learning to work with VBA.”
“Great to discover, even after years of work experience, what Word turns out to be capable of!”

“The pace of the lessons is fine, because you can adapt it to your own speed.”
“This is a good course for learning to work with VBA.”
“It ties in with your own working situation. The two days of training gave me a great deal of knowledge. I'm already looking forward to my next course.”
"A clear course with clear explanations in the book. An excellent reference work. A trainer who initially puts you on the wrong track, but who does prompt you to try things out for yourself straight away. If you get stuck, it is resolved expertly with a clear explanation."
“The open learning format is very pleasant because you can work at your own pace, which means you are not, or hardly, distracted.”
"That you can do so much with Word. It really broadens your work. The only thing is that a written record of the procedures would be ideal. You often quickly forget the positions you need to use in order to do something."
