Data Entry: Skillbuilding and Applications

Note:This is a book only version. Item does not include site license or other materials.

This text, used with a site license in a lab setting, is designed to develop speed and accuracy in entering alphabetic and numeric data using the keypad and top row. Users must already know the alphanumeric keys, but the site license software will develop job-entry skills. The site license software measures keystroke speed and accuracy on both straight copy and business forms comparable to those used in the workplace. The dedicated software also includes a Training Center for extensive skill practice and four projects to familiarize users with the skills needed in industry specific data entry careers. These industries are insurance, retail, hotel and medical.
