OTS Training Tip of the Week
Does Word track changes drive you mad?
The track changes feature in Word is a fabulous way to collaborate on a document. It helps you keep track of who is making what changes. It also allows you to go back and accept and/or reject those changes. The problem is – turning them off. Just when you think they are turned off, you open the document and there they are again!
OTS Training has created a very quick one-hour workshop dedicated to track changes. We are offering this workshop on two dates (both will be held in CK404A):
- Wednesday, May 3rd from noon to 1:00 pm
- Monday, May 15th from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm
We expect these workshops to fill up quickly, so register today. We will provide some light snacks – just bring your favorite beverage.
