Training & Certification

Archive page. In 2004 and 2005 this address was the website of the OpenOffice.org Southern Africa community. The page is kept for reference and describes that period, not current software. Forms, e-mail addresses and phone numbers have been removed. openoffice.org.za is now an independent publication and is not the OpenOffice project.

Please view our list of Training Service Providers.

We have three introductory training presentations available in Macromedia Flash format.

There are currently no official certifications available specifically covering OpenOffice.org, but OpenOffice.org can be used to qualify for the International Computer Driving Licence (ICDL).

Sun Microsystems offers formalised training and certification for StarOffice. Due to the fact that StarOffice is based upon OpenOffice.org, Sun's training and certification is relevant to the OpenOffice.org user.
