About the Course

During this 2-day course, participants will learn to create a wide range of drawings and diagrams using Visio 2016. Instructors will show you how to use Visio’s built-in shapes, stencils, connectors, grids, styles and much more. Most graphics software programs depend on artistic skills, but Visio’s simple tools make conveying important information as easy as opening a template, dragging shapes into your drawing, and applying themes for a finishing touch.

Who should do this course?

This course is designed for people who need to know how to create a range of diagrams and drawings such as flowcharts, business diagrams, office floor plans and organisation charts.

Prerequisites

No prior knowledge of Microsoft Visio is required; however participants should have a general understanding of personal computers and the Windows operating system.

Sean was an excellent trainer. Felt the course was a little slow at times. Would have liked to do a little more on floor plans however Sean did a workshop at the end which was an excellent help to me. It made sense that using different tools overlapped.

Enjoyed the course and know a lot more now than I did which is great. I did find that at times the speed could of been a little slower just in order for me to take notes that I thought would be beneficial and specific for me - possibly on the first day. Otherwise was good.

Excellent course. Very well presented. Helped that it was one on one and therefore able to go back if required to clarify any points.
