I can certainly vouch for the usefulness and amazing features of this software. My personal experience has been great and rewarding. While learning how to use these software programs, I discovered how easy and simple they make the completing tasks that seem impossible. For example, while writing the same letter to a 100 people, all I had to feed the program was their names and it would automatically print their individual details on those letters; that's the power of WORD.

Joining the administrative assistant program at Sheridan college opened this world of software programs for me. Things that were a mystery to me became amazingly clear, like how I used to be amazed as I sat through so many PowerPoint presentations and imagined what could bring such amazing effects to a simple quote or picture. Or when I would be amazed how easy was to understand the data when presented in the forms of graphs instead of boring numbers. Or when I thought about a simple task of typing a personalized thanks for everyone who came to the party becoming a tedious and repetitive task solved by the magic of Word.
