The primary hub for your course material is your Courses page, where I will be adding videos which talk through the downloadable PPTs. I will update you via this blog whenever new resources are added.
There are a couple OSK videos on the Lectures tab as well.
Office Skills, however, has some crossover with other lab courses which results in some sneakier resources which live on other Courses pages.
Below I have linked suggested resources from other courses. If a direct link for the resource is not given, use the link for the Courses page under which the resource is listed.
