This course will be of practical benefit to anyone who has to use PowerPoint (or indeed any good presentation program) on a regular basis but it is also designed to prepare students for Microsoft Office User Specialist (MOUS) examinations.

The Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 exam can be taken all over the world and it is a hands-on simulation designed to show that you can work well in PowerPoint.

When you complete the course, you will be in a position to pass this exam. If you do so you will gain a certificate (Microsoft Office User Specialist: Microsoft PowerPoint 2000) which is recognised the world over.

You would be well advised to visit the MOUS website and obtain an up-to-date copy of the exam requirements as well as details of where and how to take the examination.

Qualification 1: Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 Certificate

Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 Certificate issued by Stonebridge Associated Colleges, entitling you to use the letters SAC Cert after your name.

In order to offer our students the most convenient and flexible distance learning courses, Stonebridge Associated College offers you the option to study for your course via two methods:

• 1. Via the traditional paper-based method.
• 2. Through the online method via ElearnUK.

When you study through ElearnUK you can quickly access your course material online and submit all of your question papers to your tutor online, using your unique student account. You have access to all of your course material immediately, and when you submit question papers, your tutor sends you an email containing your results and feedback.

With this course you will have unlimited access to your own personal tutor who specialises in their field of study. It is your personal tutor's role to ensure that you receive constructive feedback and to deal with any queries you may have. You are more than welcome to telephone, fax or email your personal tutor.

You will also have access to a dedicated and friendly team of administrators and course advisors who offer sound and professional guidance and advice when you need it. This ensures that you will never feel neglected and that you will always succeed!

There is no experience or previous qualifications required for enrolment on this course. It is available to all students, of all academic backgrounds.

This is only an approximate figure and is dependant upon how much time you can dedicate to your studies and how well you grasp the learning concepts in the course material. Furthermore, at the end of each lesson there is a question paper that needs to be completed and returned to your tutor. You should allow at least 1 - 2 hours of study to complete each question paper.

The approximate amount of time required to complete the course is: 135 hrs.

Assessment Method

After each lesson there will be a question paper, which needs to be completed and submitted to your personal tutor for marking. This method of continual assessment ensures that your personal tutor can consistently monitor your progress and provide you with assistance throughout the duration of the course.
