📊 Office tools
For anyone who wants to keep a shop's stock, write a clear letter or give a short talk with slides, using Excel, Word and PowerPoint (or their free twins).
Spreadsheets, documents and slides are the tools most offices run on. Learn them on one real project: a small shop's stock sheet. You'll type it, make it add up by itself, warn you when something runs low, and then write a notice and a short talk about it.
You don't need to buy anything. Every lesson works in Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint, in the free web versions, in Google Sheets, Docs and Slides, or in LibreOffice. Where the menus differ, the lesson says so.
