Exploring Microsoft Office 15 Volume 1

For use in the Office Applications course or for anyone interested in developing their Microsoft Office 2013 skills.

Move beyond the point and click

The goal of the Exploring series has been to move readers beyond the point and click, helping them understand the why and how behind each skill. The Exploring series also enables readers to extend the learning beyond the classroom–a lot of learning takes place outside of the classroom, and the Exploring series provides learning tools that students can access anytime, anywhere.

The Exploring series seeks to move readers beyond the basics of the software at a faster pace, without sacrificing coverage of the fundamental skills that every one needs to know.
