New Technical Special Interest Group
Recently, sessions in using Microsoft software have been offered by QFHS. Both classes were booked out. After discussions with participants and other members of QFHS it was determined that a new SIG be formed, the Technical SIG. This SIG will cover topics around using Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Each session will demonstrate one or more ways to use these products, both for family history and in general, with time for questions and discussion. Our aim is to give participants the knowledge to be able to use these products effectively. |
