THE STUDY
The Study at Complex Commons is now offering free consultations designed specifically to familiarize students with
the MOS testing format and guidelines. During the consultation, a learning specialist will go over the
exam skill standards so students will know what to expect.
Please note that a practice test will not be
administered during the consultation; students should practice the Microsoft Office skills independently until they feel prepared enough to pass the test. Like the regular academic consultations offered by The Study, MOS consultations should be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance at www.uky.edu/UGS/study/.
Lexington Public Library
Lexington Public Library has a wide variety of Microsoft 2007 "how-to" or step-by-step books for Office, Excel and Powerpoint.
