For the past few years we’ve brought quality training to your desktop through 30 minute and 60 minute webinars. Every month we offer free sessions on topics of interest to most users. Well, we’re going to keep on doing that. However, we’re mixing up the format to meet the needs of our customers, wherever they are.
In the past we’d do one, maybe two free webinars per month. Now, we’re going to bring you four topics, although, we’re hanging up the format to meet your busy schedule. This spring we are proud to announce, Lunch Bites. One day each month we will offer four separate 15 minute webinars. Each one will either tackle a specific function of a commonly used application or provide an overview of an application you may have but don’t use to its full potential. This month’s Lunch Bite sessions are April 17th.
Our topics this month are:
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe Illustrator
Microsoft OneNote
Microsoft Office Web Apps
The first session will begin at noon eastern time. Each successive session will begin at noon for each of the remaining time zones in the continental United States.
We are offering some solid webinars for February. Our Microsoft Excel session will uncover some great features in Excel and is well worth your time. Furthermore, Log On to Learn members will be able to access the event on our member site after the event runs. Check it out, come join us and Happy Leap Year.
