About the Workshop

"MS Word for Editors" is a one-day, comprehensive workshop on what copy editors need to know for working in the software.

The workshop is taught on PCs. Most lessons translate to a Mac, but this is not covered in this workshop. 

The workshop is designed for beginning to intermediate students of Microsoft Word. You must at least have prior experience with MS Word and familiarity with a computer. While a quick "workspace" lesson starts the day, you must already be familiar with Word's structure, and how to navigate Word using the mouse.

The course includes a supplemental workbook with in-class activities, tips, references and other information, with plenty of practical exercises. This workbook is provided to students the day of the workshop. The class works through it together, but there are also opportunities to practice at your personal comfort level.

I make a habit of demonstrating first, then letting you practice. I do my very best to circulate the room to answer individual questions, and a T.A. is also present to assist.
