ACT! Training Manuals

Cornerstone Solutions has been writing easy-to-understand software training for business people for over 20 years (which means we started in the DOS days).

Our ACT! user guides have a very simple and straightforward flow. A Description of each topic is displayed first. Following each "Description" is a step-by-step Procedure. (We would never bury this important information in a paragraph!)

After you have reviewed the basic information in the Procedure, you can try it out in the Mini-Exercise section. We have made an effort to ensure that no exercise is dependent upon the completion of a previous session. That way you can stop and start where you like or even skip around.
ACT 2010 Courseware

You can use this ACT! user guide for classroom training or as an after-class reference tool (since you may have purchased site licenses and don't have manuals at your desk...never mind...ACT! doesn't come with paper manuals anymore.;-)

For only $28, you get...

A great teaching aid, that is
Spiral-bound with a
Professional cover that can be
Customized with your company info (no additional charge), with
Color cheat sheet, and a
Keyboard template.

Oh . . . by the way . . . our manuals also contains a bit of tongue-in-cheek humor every now and then. We hope you'll forgive us and not groan too loudly.
