Good morning –

Don’t forget we have access to a fabulous training resource in Lynda.com!

For anyone who is trying to finish up the 32 hours of professional development requirement before year-end, try Lynda.com. There are over 1,400 courses and videos that you can view.

Looking for how to do a specific task within a software package ? Check Lynda.com – there may be just the video you need to answer your question!

Videos range from several hours for a complete course to just a few minutes for a specific task such as “Creating a PivotTable report from Excel data” or “Creating a Mail Merge in Word 2010”.

There’s a weekly Microsoft Office Tip every Tuesday and new courses / videos are added frequently. Even better - these videos are also available on any mobile device – use your iPad, Android phone, or iPhone to check out a quick video while waiting for a meeting to begin or stuck in the carpool pick-up line.

With Lynda.com available to us as a resource, Justin and I will be populate a playlist with courses for your use. Expect to receive emails about new courses in the playlist from time-to-time in the future. These courses will be ones that we think are worth your time and will provide you with information on our software packages.

If you have any questions, just give me a call.
Lisa
