Word Processing and Its Implications for Business Communications Courses

Montclair State College

This article explores the role of Word Processing in the office today. Seventy-five percent of the dictation which comes into most Word Proces sing Centers is in handwritten form. The reason for this is the reluctance on the part of the executive to use a dictating machine.

The course which is most suitable for this type o f instruction is the Business Communications Course.
