Microsoft Word FAQ
How long are your Microsoft Word courses?
We run a variety of Microsoft Word courses to suit different needs. Our Introduction, Intermediate, and Advanced courses are delivered as full-day sessions, usually from 9am to 4pm, giving participants the time to build skills step by step.
For those after a shorter format, we also offer a half-day Mail Merge and Macros course, typically running from 9am to 12pm.
In addition, Focused Sessions are available in 90-minute blocks, designed to cover specific Word tasks without taking too much time out of the workday.
What level of Microsoft Word knowledge do I need to take your courses?
No matter how much or little you know about Microsoft Word, our courses will help you get more out of the software.
Our Introduction course assumes no prior knowledge, while our Intermediate and Advanced courses build on existing skills.
If you’re unsure which course is right for you, give us a call, we’re happy to help you find the perfect fit!
How is the course taught?
We’re all about hands-on learning! While we’ll demonstrate features, you’ll spend most of your time actually working in Microsoft Word, creating and formatting documents. Think of it like a cooking class, we’ll show you the techniques, then you’ll practice them yourself.
Is the course curriculum up-to-date with the latest Microsoft Word features and best practices?
Definitely! We continuously update our course content to reflect the latest features in Microsoft Word and industry best practices.
Our instructors are Microsoft Word experts who stay on top of new developments to ensure you’re learning the most current and relevant skills.
What course materials do you provide?
Manuals and Training Files
So that you won’t need to carry home a printed manual, all participants on our face-to-face courses receive a PDF copy of the course manual and associated training files.
However, a printed copy can be made available at an additional cost.
Participants also get a pen and A5 Notepad to scribble down all those lovely tips and tricks for later.
Manuals and Training Files
For courses delivered online, links to our course manuals and exercise files are made available to participants to download prior to training. If you forget to download the files, they will be available on the day.
What's the difference between learning Microsoft Word from you versus online tutorials?
Think of online tutorials as recipe books – great for looking up specific things. Our courses are more like cooking classes where you:
- Get immediate help when stuck.
- Learn best practices and why they matter.
- Discover features you didn’t know existed.
- Get answers to your specific questions.
- Learn time-saving shortcuts and techniques.
- Plus, you get lifetime support after the course – try getting that from a YouTube video!

Can you explain what 'closed course' means?
A closed course is a specific type of training arrangement. Let me explain what it typically means:
A closed course, also known as a private course, is:
- Exclusively arranged for a single organisation or group.
- Not open to the general public.
- Often customised to meet the specific needs of the client.
Key features of a closed course:
- Attendees are typically from the same company or organisation.
- The content can be tailored to address specific organisational needs or challenges.
- The schedule is often more flexible, arranged to suit the client’s preferred dates and times.
- Usually held at the client’s premises or at the Keystroke Learning’s training facility.
- The group size can be adjusted based on the organisation’s requirements.
- Confidentiality is maintained as sensitive company information can be discussed freely.
Closed courses are beneficial for organisations that want to train a group of employees together, ensure consistent skill development across a team, or the company.
What is the cost of the course, and are there any additional fees?
Think of our training like your favourite coffee order, it comes in different sizes and with plenty of variations, because every organisation’s requirements are different, we’ll prepare a tailored quote to give you an exact cost.
If you’d like a ballpark figure before requesting a quote, take a look at our Pricing and Customisation page. There you’ll find guide prices that show what most clients can expect, with no hidden extras. Your course fee includes everything needed including training materials, resources, and plenty of those “aha!” moments.

How does the cost compare to other Microsoft Word training options?
Our pricing is competitive, and we believe we offer the best value.
Our courses are led by expert trainers, who provide hands on experiences using content that is constantly kept up to date. We also offer lifetime post-course support, which most other providers don’t.
When comparing costs, it’s important to consider the overall package and long-term benefits, not just the price tag.
What is the return on investment (ROI) of taking the course?
The ROI can be significant. Many of our students report increased productivity, ability to take on more complex tasks, and even career advancement after applying their new Microsoft Word skills.
While it’s hard to put an exact figure on it, consider how much time you could save each week by being more efficient over a year, this can add up to substantial time and cost savings for you or your organisation.
Lets use an intermediate course, priced at $385 with a 6 hour duration as an example. For a participant earning $40 per hour, the total investment, including opportunity cost, is $625 ($385 + $240).
We’ll now assume the course enables the participant to save 30 minutes per workday. In a typical work year with 250 workdays, this translates to 125 hours saved annually.
The value of time saved: 125 hours × $40/hour = $5,000 per year.
In this example, the course offers a substantial 700% ROI based on productivity gains alone. The participant’s investment breaks even in just over 6 workdays. This impressive return demonstrates the course’s potential to significantly improve efficiency in daily tasks, even with a conservative estimate of 30 minutes saved per day.
