We (your TLC team) put together a fully online (self-paced) training package for those of you interested in getting acquainted with MSN's latest updates to their popular Office suite.

FYI -- this is not required training - it's an opportunity for Professional Development, only. We are happy to provide you with documentation of completion for those of you who turn in an annual EEPD (or similar report), if you'd like.

• This training is self-paced and is pass/fail - repeat as needed.
• Training materials for this course come from our SSCC TLC Lynda.com training materials license. (We have 20 Lynda licenses that we rotate, as needed, throughout the campus to employed faculty, staff and administrators.)
• Please see Modules to find how to access the Office 2013 New Features material in Lynda.com

Proof of completion comes from (5) review quizzes. These quizzes are based upon the training videos/transcripts supplied in this course.
