Course Overview

Information is at the heart of the modern workplace. It comes from everywhere – people, processes, applications and devices. The greatest challenge can be making sense of all that data. What if you could unlock that old adage, ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’, and create visualisations evocative enough to represent those complexities? Or, put another way, what if you could visually represent your data like a professional graphic designer? 

With Visio, you can. Visio lets you easily and quickly visualise the information you deal with every day. With over 250,000 shapes and templates designed for a variety of industries, Visio makes it simple and intuitive to create professional diagrams in just a few steps.

The Introduction to Microsoft Visio training course is designed for students new to working with Microsoft Visio in Windows. Students will learn to create objects of their own, using the drawing tools, as well as being able to automate the charting using external data. 

After completing this course, students will be able to: 

  • Navigate the Visio interface 
  • Use and manipulate stencils and shapes
  • Create organisational diagrams 
  • Design and manage basic diagrams, workflows and flowcharts

Success Stories

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rebecca Mollart

I run a charity and my very small team needed some tailor made Teams training rather than an off the shelf package as we knew the basics but were struggling with functionality. Rob was perfect and delivered a workshop/surgery interspersed with some formal input. Well worth the expenditure especially after wasting time trying to work things out ourselves for a couple of months. Will save us money on the long run. Pre-training arrangements were great too - efficient, responsive, friendly.

Tim Bainbridge

I have recently completed training in the International Computer Driving Licence (Microsoft Office), Levels 1 & 2. The standard of the service and training I received from NILC was excellent, throughout. Karim Dastgir and Julie Jones were always very friendly, supportive and flexible and as a result of completing the training, I have recently secured employment as an Administrative Assistant, with Cardiff University. The training directly enabled me to do this job.
