Office 365 Productivity Tools

Course Summary:

Office 365 has a myriad of tools (not just SharePoint!) that enable us to work more productively. They can be, however, overwhelming! Let’s make it simple!

This course explores what’s possible in the tools offered by Office 365. Experience using the tools. Figure out what could work for your company.

The challenge in most cases is:

• I don’t know what I don’t know;
• I don’t know when to use what tool.

Take a guided discovery through the new ways of working; gathering insight into how to USE the tools in a cohesive, practical and enhancing manner. This bundle includes self-paced learning modules for three of the top productivity-enhancing apps in Office 365 - plus a brief overview of some basic Office 365 concepts.

The learning modules include screenshots, videos, additional resources and exercises that will have you experiencing the integration of all these tools to make your personal work activities more seamless and your team more productive.
