LEARN HOW TO USE MICROSOFT WORD ON YOUR IPOD
Makau Corporation, the company that taught you how to use your iPod and PowerPoint, now offers a free entry-level Microsoft Word course


Orem, UT – February 6, 2007 – Makau Corporation, your next-generation training partner and your iPod training expert, today, announced the availability of its Free entry-level Microsoft Word e-learning, compressed and formatted to play on Video iPod’s now available to the public on www.makaucorp.com.

According to John Jacob, chairman of Makau Corporation, he had the idea to create training for your iPod.

“Makau offers everyone two free e-learning training courses on how to use your iPod and two free entry-level courses on PowerPoint 2003 and Word 2003,” said Jacob. “After watching the free iPod training, try downloading a course of PowerPoint or Word 2003 and watch directly on your iPod.”

The Microsoft® Word 2003 course enables you to master everything from the very basic word processing functions to the most advanced features. Whether you are new to Word, upgrading from a previous release, or need to obtain your MOS certification, this course takes you step-by-step through your mastery of Word.

The instructor for the course is Dan Holmes. Holmes is one of the best technical instructors in the nation, with an innate understanding of how to communicate complex topics and ensure that a course is educational and entertaining. With degrees from both Yale and Thunderbird, and 14 years of international public speaking experience, Dan's energetic style and communications techniques ensures your success.

Soon Makau will be launching further desktop training titles. With courses available on Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, Access, Project, and Publisher, there is no reason your iPod can't both entertain you and make you more effective too.

To get your Microsoft Word entry-level training course free from Makau, go to www.makaucorp.com and click on free iPod training and you will find it at the bottom of the page. The training is also available as part of the Makau Learning Appliance, a learning management system and library loaded on a server that resides behind an organization’s firewall.
