I don’t have the money to take a college class for each of those but I’m going to school online to become an administrative assistant, and I need to learn these to better myself.
Anyone know a way to learn these without spending a lot of money?
I thought about that Video Professor thing, but I don’t know.
Also I don’t want to go out and buy this software, I checked around and it’s not very cheap. Any ideas?
Don’t worry about spending money…these tutorials for Microsoft Office are FREE:

And if you need to get some hands on experience and practice using Word, Excel, and Powerpoint then you want to get the FREE Kingsoft Office 2007 Personal suite version.
It is compatible with Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint:

The installation file is stored in a zip file so you will need a program like ExtractNow (which of course you can get FREE from http://www.download.com) to unzip the file and extract the installation program for the Kingsoft Office 2007 Free Personal Edition.
I use the Kingsoft Office 2007 Free Edition suite on my own work laptop mainly because the menu interface for this suite is SIMILAR to Microsoft Office 2003 and so I find it easy to use.
Here is a website that gives more information about the Kingsoft Office 2007 free version:

Good luck with your classes and I hope this helps!
