Applications are due by April 1, 1999. Much of the doctoral study does not require full time presence on NSU's campus. You can become proficient in the use of Microsoft Office programs like Word, Excel, Access, and PowerPoint and then be tested on each program separately to gain certification as a Microsoft User Specialist. An Authorized Test Center is available at Nova Southeastern University's Fischler Graduate School of Education and Human Services on its North Miami Beach campus. The exam consists of real-world assignments that are based on the way you actually use your computer.
Most exams take less than an hour.
Microsoft programs such as Works, Word, Encarta 98, Excel, PowerPoint, and the Magic School Bus are part of the workshops Nova Southeastern University's Fischler's Office of Technology is offering. Free 2-hour sessions will be held on the NSU North Miami Beach campus. Additional workshops for previewing and training or in-depth training may be scheduled at the Davie campus or your own lab. Scholarships may be applied for to waive the entire training costs for all or part of your faculty. Clinics are located on the Davie and North Miami Beach campuses.
