Visio 2007: Getting StartedVisio 2007 is easier than ever to use! It comes with diagram-specific shapes and tools that enable you to quickly create professional-looking flowcharts, organization charts, timelines, and more. In this two-hour workshop, we will learn how to create some basic shapes, and connect, distribute, and align them using the new AutoConnect feature. We will also format some shapes using the new Themes feature.
Visio 2007: Introduction to Office Layout & Floor PlansVisio 2007 includes everything you need to create basic professional-looking office layouts along with additional templates and shapes to create detailed floor, space, and site plans. In this short course we will use tools like the Office Layout template to create simple or detailed scaled layouts for individual offices, adding details like walls, electrical symbols, cubicle layouts, and office furniture to help visualize the overall office layout.
Visio 2007: Documenting Project Team ProcessesAs a member of a project team, you have probably participated in brainstorming sessions. But what do you do with your brainstorming results? Do you record them on flip charts or a whiteboard and then copy them into a document later? A different approach is to use Visio 2007 to create a brainstorming diagram that records your team’s free associative thinking process and results. Besides documenting results, you can also diagram relationships between ideas, and show dependencies. Later on, you can send the diagram in an e-mail message or import it into Microsoft Word to include comments and explanations. Need a clearer understanding of an important business process? With Visio 2007 you can take a fresh look at the process in a way that helps make sense of it all. By visually mapping your process steps and relationships in as much detail as you need, you and your team can zero in on what's working and what's not. Using a flowchart, you can more easily see where important steps might be missing, and recognize ways to make every step of the process more efficient. This short course will show you how to make the most of your project team’s hard work.
Visio 2007, Level 1Visio 2007 helps you to create professional-looking diagrams for understanding, documenting, and analyzing information, data, systems, and processes. In this 6-hour course, we will look at the new interface (including the Getting Started window); work with shapes by creating a map; manage and format shapes; and create diagrams including a flowchart and organization chart.
Visio 2007, Level 2In this 6-hour intermediate course you will learn how to work with the many advanced features of the program including the drawing tools, creating and working with custom shapes and stencils, templates, and working with external data, including project plan data in Visio. We will see how easy it is to link to a database file and import Excel data as well.
