Information Technology Skills | ITS-1003

Current and effective use of Information Technology Skills (ITS) is a requirement for all working professionals. ITS-1003 is a blended learning course designed to acquaint students with Microsoft Office Word, Excel and PowerPoint software as well as the fundamentals of file-management when using the Microsoft Windows operating system. Different browsers, practical Internet research tools and the Lambton College email program are also studied. This course is delivered using practical hands-on applications and comprises additional online skills assessment and training tools purposefully designed to provide flexibility in learning. Greater emphasis is placed on Microsoft Word and PowerPoint than Excel as the course aligns more closely to community services and liberal studies. This course further prepares students to apply these technological skills as they continue and expand in their program areas of study.
