Employee Training Program Online Course

Google Docs, Apps, & More (Tools of Web 2.0)

Author: Casey Armstrong

In this class, we will focus on how to use Google Docs for your word-processing, spreadsheet/forms, and presentation needs. This is an online collaboration site so that you and your co-workers can edit documents simultaneously. 

Also, we will go over some of the other exciting new tools of web 2.0 including screencasts, custom Google Maps, and more.

If you are interested in learning more about collaborating with others and automating common computer related tasks using free online tech, give this course a try.

Please sign up for a gmail account ahead of time (if you do not already have one) before attending because, at one point, we will be co-editing a document, together.
