Your Instructor
Hi, I'm Hilary. I’ve been a technical editor since 1999, and a trainer since 2005. I created my first course to help share my passion for editing tools with others.
As a seasoned editor, I often receive documents from clients where the formatting is a mess. I know just how daunting this can feel because I’m not a natural with MS Word. Luckily for me, I worked in a small office and could learn from my colleagues.
Now I have a Word course that is carefully designed to give you the skills to use styles and templates confidently and effectively. If you’d like to master these features of Word to save time while producing high-quality work, my course is for you.
