Why should I attend this course?
Word may seem a simple program, but those who ever tried to master numbered lists, tables of contents, (wide) tables, diagrams, or pictures, will know better.
Pictures jumping to another position, numbering that is out of order, diagrams with arrows pointing in the wrong direction, disappearing headers, footers or page numbers. Disasters for those who really need these functions, e.g. for a master or PhD Thesis! This course will bring you back in control!
