What is the Microsoft Office Certification Credential?
It is a globally recognized standard that validates office-related computer skills.
The credential validates the level of skills with using the Microsoft Office pack: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access and Outlook.
The training program permits users to acquire, develop as well as to enhance their skills on any or all of these applications.
The benefits
A more efficient use of the software enables the optimization of performance, reducing the time involved in carrying out business-related tasks and, as a result, significantly boosts productivity. Certification validates the level of user skills and is internationally recognized.
For employers
It enables management to boost the productivity of software tools by matching the level of skills with the jobs that employees are called upon to perform. For service providers and suppliers, it demonstrates the company’s committment to training its employees, and serves as a guarantee of the quality of the services offered.
For employees
The credential is globally recognized and enables employees to validate their skills, as well as their level of understanding and expertise in using the Micosoft Office software tools. The training program is DIF-qualified (French goverment measure to encourage continuing vocational training).
