USF's is moving to Microsoft Office 2010 for Windows and 2011 for Macintosh as our standard productivity suites for the 2011/12 academic year. While for Windows users this isn't the major change you went through moving from Office 2003 to Office 2007 version, there are some changes. Macintosh users will now see their significant upgrade to the user interface that Windows users saw with the 2007 upgrade.To ease the transition for both platforms CIT is providing training classes. Below you'll find a variety of training materials, and links to Microsoft help pages.
