                      -  and the correct version of Office: Office 2000
 
                        not XP, 2003 or any other version.

 

NOTE
Staff at Bankstown will be able to use the alison online course to learn the ICDL skills on Bankstown PCs, but they will not be able to prepare for the tests using Office programs on the Bankstown PCs, as these have a version of Office not compatible with the test version used.
They will need to use PCs with Office 2000, available at Campsie, Burwood, Hornsby and Mary St.
