Get up to speed with Vista and Office 2007

Everyone in school needs basic software skills. Familiarity with current software is vital for staff efficiency, pupil learning and pupils’ employment prospects. However, ensuring that everyone maintains that familiarity when successive versions of basic software become available can be difficult. Schools not only have to embed ICT use into all aspects of their work, they also have to make sure that everyone in the school has the skills to use ICT, and when new versions of basic software products (such as those provided by Microsoft) are released, the challenge for schools increases.

In response to this challenge, Pearson Publishing has launched Vista and Office 2007 Quick Guides. These brief summaries are designed for those who are already familiar with Microsoft products, but who need guidance on the main features and differences between Vista and Office 2007 software and previous versions.

Vista and Office 2007 Quick Guides offers a whole-school solution that can be used both for teaching pupils and for staff training. The material builds on learners' existing knowledge, so it makes learning about Microsoft® Vista and Office 2007 quick and easily accessible for all.

Vista and Office 2007 Quick Guides is the latest in Pearson Publishing's range of guides to getting the most out of Microsoft products.
