You may have another Del Tech campus order the textbook for you as well. The software needed is Office2016. You should have completed OAT151 (Access), OAT152 (Excel), OAT157 (Word Level I), and OAT159 (PowerPoint) prior to taking this course. Therefore, you should have textbooks to use for references.
