I feel like anytime I've ever taken a class to learn how to use Word, it's been one of two things.
First is essentially how we will use Word. It's a note pad with a few extra things for editing text, but the main thing is headers, footers, and the margin sizes.
Second is nothing I will ever use. When I was going to school for accounting I had to take a class on Windows programs, and we spent so much time learning how to post images, how to edit them, and shit like that. By the end of the class I could probably make a profesional looking flyer, but it would have taken half the time with any image editing type program.
Also in that class we had a free students version of Word, which meant that there were usually steps in the homework we couldn't do, but we still got points docked for it. Even though we all told the professor about this. So that was fun.
