MVP training
For my job, I need to know Word inside and out. Where can I get the level of
training that MS Word MVPs get? I know Word pretty well, but I need to know so much more! Please help. Thank you. |

They each got their training in different ways. Take a look at the MVP FAQ
and the page about MVPs for background. You could start by reading that web site, a bit at a time. Take a look at the intermediate tutorial on my site. Then read the questions and answeres posted on these newsgroups. Try out suggestions that are made on your own system. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup. Please post replies and questions to the newsgroup so that others can learn from my ignorance and your wisdom. "V-ger" wrote in message ... For my job, I need to know Word inside and out.

This MVP has had zero formal training. I have learned what little I know by
bending Word to my will when I can and by participating in the Word newsgroups. The MVP FAQ site (read them all twice) is a good foundation :-) http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/index.htm -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP A Peer in Peer to Peer Support V-ger wrote: For my job, I need to know Word inside and out.

Greg,
Made me chuckle and gave me good advice. I'll take it. Thanks! "Greg Maxey" wrote: This MVP has had zero formal training.

I'll add to what the others have said. I'm a former Latin teacher and
current freelance editor who has never taken any kind of computer or Word course. I've been using Word daily since 1992, but I've gotten most of my education by participating in these NGs since 1998. -- Suzanne S.

Thank you for your feedback. I'll reiterate what the others have said, too:
read the articles at word.mvps.org (twice, as someone said). But the main thing that helps is to stay curious! -- Suzanne S.
