The training is divided into four sessions which are part theory and explanation and part demonstration. They are accompanied by six practical sessions where we step you through an actual template conversion.
You can get the APPS FOR OFFICE templates when you install the 30 day trial for apps WorkSmart: Products
It doesn't really matter how you approach the sessions, you can watch the first training session, and follow that with the first walkthough, or watch all the training sessions, and then watch the Wordwallah walthrough, or vice versa. I've tried to modularise the content in each of the videos as much as possible so they can stand alone.
The sessions follow an order of showing you how to make quick and easy changes through to the more complicated operations. If you are new to MS Word and the more advanced concepts of building blocks and multi-level list styles, we recommend you start at the beginning and follow the order of the sessions.
The main difference between the two is that the training sessions have more explanation than the walkthroughs; the Walkthroughs are showing you how to do the required steps, whereas the training sessions are "this is what you do and why you do it'. In some cases, such as the Chapter building blocks session, the training demonstrates a more complex chapter setup than then walkthrough.
We are always trying to make this very detailed subject simple and easy - let us know if we could things better or if you like we do.
Please remember, we really want to help you become a master at this as quickly as possible so please contact us at support@appsforoffice.com if you have any questions - we can usually get you back working as quickly as possible.
