Free Office 2007 training!
I am working on a project to deploy Windows Vista and Office 2007 at the moment in a large bank. The client is concerned that once the rollout commences all hell will break loose because his users will not be able to find anything in Office 20007 because of the new UI and the Ribbon (In his words. I actually find the Ribbon to be quite intuitive). So, he asked me if we had free training resources available that he can start to use with all his staff to try and make the transition as smooth as possible. I'd said that I'd look into it but I suspected that there was nothing that was detailed enough for him without any cost. Then a couple of hours later I saw a blog post by Dave Northey that provided links to an abundance of free Office 2007 training! Perfect!
I've reproduced all the links here, plus a link to the original post.
