Soon after I learned about Skillsoft, my library updated the checkout computer from Windows XP to Windows 8.1. It was a big change, but I remembered seeing Windows 8 learning assets offered on Skillsoft. After viewing the Skillsoft asset I navigate our new computer with no problems!

I felt I learned a lot of useful information taking this course. The course was user friendly and easy to navigate.

Would I recommend Skillport? Yes. Will I use it again? Definitely! I have already started another course in Skillport for “Windows 8”.

I enjoyed how they presented the material.

The tests really helped instill the skills.

Completed!

I would recommend it for anyone who wants to either learn more or just to brush up on their computer software skills.
