Description
The PowerPoint 2019 & 365 Associate online course is designed for experienced PowerPoint users who wish to undertake a refresher course, for students who are interested in gaining a broad knowledge of the PowerPoint application, and for those wishing to take the Microsoft Office Specialist examination.
The course is the ideal study guide for those wishing to gain the industry-recognised MOS certification because it follows the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) syllabus.

Whether you are already employed or are currently seeking employment, proficiency in Microsoft Office products is increasingly important in today’s competitive business environment, and Microsoft Office Specialist certification proves to employers and prospective employers that you have the skills required to become an important member of their team.
