The primary goal of the GO! Series, aside from teaching computer applications, is ease of implementation, with an approach that is based on clearly defined projects for students and a one-of-a-kind supplements package. The GO! series is the right solution for you and your students in today's fast-moving, mobile environment. GO! focuses on today's mobile worker wherever, whenever, and from whatever device.
