Create documents with a clear structure

Introduction to Word covers document creation and editing, text and paragraph formatting, lists, tabs, margins, page setup, headers and footers. It is a foundation for producing everyday documents with more control.

For practice, prepare a fictional one-page notice and then change the text length. Check that spacing and layout still work without adding repeated spaces or empty paragraphs. Confirm your Word version and ability to access the practice files before the course.
