Diocesan Webinar Series: Microsoft Publisher Group Trainings
On October 1st, Microsoft Publisher will no longer be supported. Whether you’ve already begun the switch, are just getting started, or haven’t begun yet, we’ve put together a comprehensive collection of resources to help you with this transition.
Beginning August 3rd, we will host daily group training for Affinity and Canva. In these training sessions, we will cover:
- Getting started with the program of your choice
- Building and editing your bulletin from a template
- Working with text, images, and common bulletin elements
- Ways to make the transition as seamless as possible
