In this course, Garrick Chow helps you get up to speed quickly with Microsoft Word by providing a quick overview of the popular word processing application, and helping you understand the differences and similarities with related apps. He walks through the Word user interface, and explains how to create and format documents in Word. He also covers saving and sharing documents, and using Word Online and the Word Mobile app.
