We all may be using the same software day-by-day and never really notice any new features. It may just be that we are too busy to even explore, let alone stop and attend a workshop. Attending a software workshop can actually save you time.
If you learn only one new feature that saves you 5 minutes a day, that can easily add up to over 20 hours saved in a year. Considering that the workshops are under 2 hours and free for all FIU Faculty and staff, the benefits definitely outweigh the costs.
These convenient, hands-on workshops include: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Outlook and Blackboard Learn. To view the training calendar for faculty and staff and to register for an upcoming session visit the FIU Professional Development site.
