| Course Overview: |
| Publisher 2000 is perhaps the most valuable desktop publishing program you can buy to create and enhance your personal and professional image. In this six-week online course, you will be introduced to the basics of Publisher, including how to work with text, graphics, and tables. You'll also work through several project lessons on creating a professional brochure, a newsletter, and a web site. Publisher 2000 makes designing your professional image easy with built-in wizards that you can use as they are or refine to create a unique image that is all your own. Whether you are creating a brochure, newsletter, or web site, this small but powerful program can take you to levels of design expertise you did not know you had...without requiring any formal graphic design experience or training. |
