By Jasmin E Mullings, on 15 April 2019

ISD Digital Skills Development has released new dates for Term 3. As usual, we are offering a wide range of courses covering Excel, Photoshop, Matlab, SPSS, and more..

New this term we are offering a Creating accessible documents course.  Making documents accessible is important for everyone, whether or not they have a disability or impairment. New regulations have recently come into effect that make it even more crucial. In this session you will learn how to make your PowerPoint, Word, Excel and PDF files more accessible.  Book a place on a Creating accessible documents course.
