Course Description

OneNote 2016 is a note-taking program that comes bundled with the Microsoft Office 2016 suite.  Whereas MS Word is a word processing program that you can use to create documents, OneNote is simply a note taking program that you can use to take notes and organize those notes with pictures, tables, charts, as well as screen clippings from the web and other programs -and that's just the start.

This course will teach you how to successfully use OneNote 2016, even if you've never used previous versions.    We start out at the very beginning and progress through the program.    Each step of the way, we'll show you how to navigate and utilize its many features, then challenge you with lesson exercises to reinforce what you've learned. 

In this course, you'll discover how to...

·    Create notebooks

·    Add pages, sections, and section groups to notebooks

·    Customize notebooks with templates, page color, and more

·    Insert pictures, tables, audio, and video into your notes
