Faculty and staff now have an opportunity to take workshops online for CT&D workshop credit. * Basic and Intermediate workshops will be offered in Microsoft college-supported applications , and other titles are available if you need to learn a program to assist you in your job. Participants can complete the workshops at their own pace and at their own desk, in the training labs, or at home. If you need a quieter place to work and would like to have someone around to help you if you get stuck, please come to the CTD training lab on your campus during open lab hours . Please email ctd@mdc.edu if you have any questions.
“These courses are well designed, presenting new material in a logical progression, which aids learning. The ‘try it your self' demos can be a bit querky and a bit too sensitive to mouse location. On those occasions I go to full demo mode and just observe.”
