Microsoft Publisher 2013 Introduction Course

Our Microsoft Publisher Beginners Course introduces you to the features and tools contained in the software to create and edit spreads and layouts such as flyers, stationery, newsletters and small booklets.

Publisher is ideal for both personal and business use. It contains all the tools and features you will need to design professional, eye catching publications for both print and digital output.

 

For those who prefer to design quickly and with little fuss it comes with a number of pre-built templates and building blocks of pre-formatted objects which you can use to customise to your brand and style.

 

It is delivered both as an onsite Publisher Training session hosted on your premises or as an online interactive Publisher course with a live instructor. This Introduction Course is often combined with the Publisher Advanced Course and can be tailored to your criteria for a totally tailored publishing course.
