Requirements

Windows operating system with Microsoft Office is required to get the most out of the course. The formats, functionality, and keyboard shortcuts are different on a Mac operating system.
I am using Office 365 for the demo, an earlier version of Office will work perfectly fine, including for creating new shortcuts.
