Illustrated Series® Collection, Microsoft® Office 365® & Word® 2021 Comprehensive 1st Edition by Jennifer Duffy/Carol Cram
Quick Navigation

Overview

Cengage's Illustrated Series® Collection, Microsoft® Office 365® & Word® 2021 Comprehensive, 1st edition, is fully updated with the latest Microsoft 365 features and enhanced support for Mac users. Its concise, student-friendly approach to learning Microsoft Office uses a proven two-page layout that enables learners to focus on discrete Office skills as they complete module readings. Each module begins with a brief overview of the principles covered in the lesson while large, full-color screen images illustrate what students see on their own computers. Module scenarios are based on Burning Glass market insights data and mapped to MOS objectives to engage students and reinforce the critical skills they need for academic and professional success. In addition, MindTap and updated SAM (Skills Assessment Manager) online resources are available to guide additional study and maximize results.
