VGCC Computer classes scheduled to start in April at Main Campus

Vance-Granville Community College is currently registering students for several popular computer courses being offered on the college’s Main Campus in Vance County.

 

A course on the Microsoft Word and Excel software is scheduled for Tuesday evenings from 6 until 10 p.m., April 3 through May 8. Students will familiarize themselves with the popular word processing and spreadsheet programs. Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel are two of the most widely used software programs in the workforce today. Knowledge of these programs is frequently listed as a requirement in job postings.

 

For those who already have experience working with Excel, an “Intermediate/Advanced Excel” course, in which students learn more advanced spreadsheet formulas and functions, will be offered on Tuesdays from 1:30 until 4:30 p.m., April 3 through May 8.

 

The “Beginner’s Guide to Computers & Internet” class is scheduled for Thursdays from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m., April 5 through May 10. Novice students will get an introduction to the common components and many uses of personal computers through the Windows environment. Students will also learn effective ways to make the most of the Internet in their daily lives through the use of common search tools.

 

For each course, the registration fee is $65, with other college fees totaling $6. Registration fees are waived for N.C. resident seniors, ages 65 and above, for one course per semester.
