Built around Microsoft Office

The program centres on the software every office already runs—Word, Excel and Outlook—so the skills transfer to any workplace from day one.

I finished the Office Administration course. Overall, the course wasn’t too complicated, and learning the software was a lot of fun. All of the instructors were kind and checked in on me regularly.
