[nabs-l] question on learning excel

[bookwormahb at earthlink.net]

Hi,
If anyone takes the online class through Carroll tech, let me know how it 
goes.
I might call them and see if their classes address 2010 office suite or just 
2007 now.
One more option I though of is Hadley school for the blind.
That is a distance education school and classes are free.
Go to www.hadley.edu to learn more.
Here is the description of the excell course.
Microsoft Excel is one of the most popular computer programs in use today. 
If you are entering or reentering the workforce, creating and using 
spreadsheets is an asset. Excel helps not only with tasks concerning numbers 
and computation, but also with organizational tasks such as keeping contact 
information, maintaining an inventory and cataloging music. This course will 
help you use Excel to manage and compute real-world data.
Prerequisite: Basic math operations, fractions, decimals, percents; 
familiarity with PC and access technology; access to a computer with Excel 
software installed (Excel 95 or newer) and a word processor.
Course: BBS-111, Media: B, C, LP or OL, Lessons: 5

The Carroll Center in MA has an online course that is supposed to be good. I
have never taken the class, so I can't speak from experience.
