These 2 courses are intended for business users and knowledge workers in a variety of roles and fields who have competence in a desktop-based installation of Microsoft Office, and who are now extending Microsoft 365 to a collaborative cloud-based environment.
Prerequisites: To ensure your success in these 2 courses, you will need to be familiar with the Windows® operating system and a web browser.
It would also be beneficial to have familiarity with at least one common software application (email, word processing, spreadsheet, or presentation software).
This course is an introduction to Microsoft® 365 in a cloud-based environment. Using the Microsoft 365 suite of productivity apps online, users can easily communicate and collaborate through Microsoft® Teams® messaging and meeting functionality and Outlook® email.
When you create a team, the Microsoft SharePoint® team site provides a central storage location for accessing and modifying shared documents.
Each user also receives individual document storage through OneDrive® for Business.
Teams can provide a central hub for working with shared documents in the familiar apps—Word, PowerPoint®, and Excel®—as an alternative to installing the Microsoft 365 Desktop applications.
Course Objective: In this course, you will work productively in the Microsoft 365 cloud-based environment.
