What others say about this course
“The pace of the lessons is fine, because you can adapt it to your own speed.”
“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.”
"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."

“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.”
"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."
“The open learning format is very pleasant because you can work at your own pace, which means you are not, or hardly, distracted.”
“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 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."
“Excellent impression, learned a great deal! I have been able to put what I learned into practice almost immediately!”
“Instructive course (Word and Excel) with a nice trainer. I learned a lot!”
"I learned a great deal and the material is easy to apply in practice."
“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.”
"I took a Word course, which I found very good. Good guidance, clear explanations and a pleasant book to work through. You are given plenty of time for everything; I learned a great deal from the course!"
“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 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.”
“Recommended: the course was very clear, easy to follow and effective. Personal guidance and attention for specific questions. Maastricht is a lovely location with a very well catered lunch.”
“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!”
“This is a good course for learning to work with VBA.”
"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!)."
“Learning at your own pace with good support!”
“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.”
