Office 2013 Upgrade Training Courses London

Who is this course for?

For experienced users of Office 2010, Office 2007 or Office 2003 who require familiarisation with the new 2013 interface, and changed or updated features in commonly used Microsoft applications.

For the novice user of Microsoft Office 2013, we recommend attendance on our 1 day Microsoft Office 2013 courses: Excel, PowerPoint, Word and Access.

Note: as there are more recent versions of Office out, including Microsoft 365, this course is now considered a legacy course. Please view our Microsoft 365 for more up-to-date courses.
