Develop your digital skills this academic year – new dates released
By Jasmin E Mullings, on 7 February 2019
ISD Digital Skills Development has released new dates for the second half of Term 2. As usual, we are offering a wide range of courses covering Excel, Photoshop, Matlab, Stata, and more..
New this February we have a course in Markdown, a lightweight markup language that allows the creation of formatted documents using only plain text.
Following our successful introduction of Excel Essential Skills workshops last year, we have now added Word workshops for students. Find out how to Make light work of writing up in our Sway presentation. (Want to make your own Sway? Come along to a mini demo session with Digital Skills Development at IOE.)
