      Office Skills, Secretarial & PA Training 2

      I regret doing this course- only a few units were actually useful! *A lot of it is just common sense *The units on Microsoft Word and Outlook were shown using the obsolete versions *Some of the videos were shot & edited very poorly *Some of the written tutorials were shoddy and seemed 'rushed' *A couple of videos were looped *I couldn't find the exercise files for at least one of the units (not at the end where they usually are) *The mock exams and final exam had questions on things that weren't even in the course! All I got from this course is an idea of what I need to work on and how NOT to do it.
