Product Information

Learning OpenOffice.org Impress Essential is easy with instructor-led Video Training

OpenOffice.org continues to impress more and more users who want to save money. The Impress program is a shining example of why users are abandoning Microsoft and moving toward the free tools from OpenOffice.org. Impress is a presentation application that rivals PowerPoint. High impact tools and the ability to add 3D graphics to your slideshows and compatibility with PowerPoint and the OpenDocument format make Impress truly impressive. Plus, Impress is free!

Are you ready to make the switch? Give yourself an edge by getting the proper training. The self-paced OpenOffice.org Impress CBT is an excellent tool that you can use to learn the ins and outs of creating professional looking presentations with Impress. Simply install the OpenOffice.org Impress training CD onto your computer or laptop and let the learning begin.

Instead of sitting through traditional classes and lectures, you'll learn by watching videos. These full motion videos feature a certified instructor who knows Impress inside and out. You'll explore the functions and features of Impress and see exactly how to use them. The OpenOffice.org training videos give you a front row seat to high quality instruction without having to actually sit in a classroom.

In addition, the self-paced OpenOffice.org Impress CBT features interactive content, simulations, hands-on activities, and other computer based components designed to give you practical experience using Impress. Even if you don't have a copy of Impress on your computer, you still get to know Impress intimately.

Learning how to use an application on your computer gives you a real feel for how things are done. The OpenOffice.org Impress training CD emphasizes real world techniques and shows you what you need to know in order to create dazzling presentations. By the end of the training, you will be ready to create your own slideshows complete with special effects.

You can watch the OpenOffice.org Impress training videos over and over to ensure your learning. If you want a quick overview of Impress, you can jump ahead to the topics that matter most to you and skip those you already understand. If you prefer a slower, more thorough pace, you can take your time without pressure. This makes the OpenOffice.org Impress training CD flexible and effective.

OpenOffice.org Impress Essential Training Video CBT Features:
	Training Videos: An instructor introduces each learning module and gives you a preview of the topics that are covered. Instead of relying on reading written introductions, simply click on the video presentations for an interesting, informative summary of the concepts that you will be learning next. You will be learning these topics directly from an expert instructor who really knows the material.
	Hands-On Labs: Interactive hands-on lab scenarios are included for you to practice your skills. In fact, you don't even need the software on your computer in order to receive this hands-on training. Simulations are critical to the learning process. By modeling a real system and letting you perform the same tasks you would perform on the real system, you are reinforcing your knowledge.
	Player Controls: You can navigate freely with the player controls. You can play, pause, rewind, forward, and stop any video topic. The controls are familiar and easy to use. Simply click the control that matches the functions you want. If you are interrupted during your studies, click the pause button so that you won’t miss a single minute of the video training.
	Course Map: Choosing which topic you want to learn is easy with the convenient course map. Advanced users may skip ahead or repeat users can pick up where they left off. The course map allows you to pick and choose the topics that interest you and tailor the learning. You can even use it as a quick launch for reviewing specific topics.
	Search Function: Find the topics you need instantly. Just type in the word that describes your topic and view the search results. Don't waste countless minutes trying to find something you need now. The Search function is fast, accurate, and easy to use. Relevant search results and fast hyperlinks will jump you to your desired topic in a blink of an eye.
	Note Taking: Put away your notebook and pencil. Instead, jot down notes or questions for later reference by using the useful notepad feature. If an idea comes to mind or if you need to remind yourself of something important while studying, click on the notepad directly from the course interface and type out your thoughts without ever having to lift a pencil.
	Bookmarking: Self-paced study is designed to take place over several sessions which makes bookmarking extremely useful. You can exit your training and quickly reference areas of study you wish to revisit later by using bookmarks. If you want to pay special attention to a particular topic, simply use the bookmark feature so that you can spend extra time mastering the concept.
	Print: Do you need a hard copy? Sometimes, it’s just not practical to log on to your computer when you have a quick question or want to review. The print function lets you print out a hard copy for those times when you need to study offline. Anything that you see on the screen can be printed out for future reference.
	Certificate of Completion: Each interactive course comes with a certificate of completion. After you have finished the course, you just type in your name and print. It's that simple. Get recognized of your accomplishments with our courses.
	Multi-User Licensing: The best single and multi-user licensing agreement in the industry. Our licensing agreements accommodate individual students as well as companies with large training requirements. Single user licenses, single PCs licenses, multiple-user (non-concurrent) licenses, and unlimited corporate server site licenses are all available. This level of flexible licensing can’t be beat. No matter what you need, we have a license.
