The sessions will be held through a Microsoft Teams meeting. A link (URL) to the meeting and
joining instructions will be sent after booking on a session.
Target Audience
Cardiff Met students or staff.
Prerequisites
A good level of general ICT proficiency is required, e.g. ability to manage files, use a web browser. For the Word Expert and Excel Expert courses you should pass the
MOS Word and
MOS Excel specialist qualifications (respectively) or alternatively have an equivalent level of knowledge and skill.
Cost
The course and exam are free to Cardiff Met students and staff, but places are limited.
Course Overviews
There are three Microsoft Office Specialist: Expert courses and qualifications available. Here is a brief overview of each.
Course Structure
To enrol on a course you need to attend an induction session and complete the induction form. The induction explains the nature and structure of the courses and the resources available.
The core of each course is comprehensive video-based LearnKey e-lessons. In addition, the courses include practice questions and exercises and GMetrix practice (mock) exams. The courses can be studied at your own pace.
Each course concludes with the Microsoft Office Specialist: Expert exam: a 50 minute, computer assessed exam in which you have to complete several tasks on realistic spreadsheets, documents or databases. The exams can be taken remotely, from your home.
Visit our Microsoft Office Specialist page to find out more about MOS and the benefits of a MOS qualification.
