Microsoft office Professional Course Batch MS-84 June 2024

Summary:

Welcome to the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Course! The MOS course is set up to allow
students to further their knowledge in the workings of Excel and Word. This course provides an
opportunity for students to not only master the skills necessary to work these programs, but to become
certified in those specific areas. Students will be expected to take the MOS certification test at the end
of the class. If they pass, students will not only graduate with a diploma from Bloemfontein, but also
specific certifications that will allow them to be more marketable at both the collegiate and
professional levels. Students also have the opportunity to earn three college credits through Seton Hill
when taking this course. They need to enroll at the beginning of the year and need to understand that
these credits will be a part of their permanent collegiate record if they choose to enroll in the college in
the high school portion.
Students should know and demonstrate the correct application of the principal features of
Microsoft Word. These candidates should be able to create and edit 2-3 page documents for a variety
of purposes and situations. Examples include professional-looking reports, multi-column newsletters,
resumes, and business correspondence. They should know and demonstrate the correct application of
the principal features of Excel. These candidates should be able to create and edit a workbook with
multiple sheets for a variety of purposes and situations. Examples include professional-looking
