Visio 2010 Foundation

Microsoft Office Visio 2010 is the newest version of Microsoft`s diagramming application. Whether you`re using Visio for the first time, or have been using it for years, this introductory course will help you make the most of Visio’s exciting features. Highlights of the course include a complete review of the new ribbon-based interface, plus a complete walkthrough of creating your own ribbon tabs. We will also explore how to set up a new diagram, creating a basic diagram, using the new Auto Connect feature, and accessing Visio’s many templates and sample diagrams.

We designed Visio 2010 Foundation for the student who has little or no experience using Visio 2010 and who needs to learn the basic skills that are necessary in order to begin to use this program effectively. Participants are expected to have experience using other MS Office packages.
