Microsoft Outlook is More Than an Email Tool
This course is for anyone who is new to Microsoft Outlook, and wants to use the software properly.
It's also great for people who are using Outlook, but are only using some of its features - usually just email.
It shows you how to deal with and manage emails, but it also takes you on to organizing your communications with Contacts, Calendar and Tasks.
You don't need any experience of using Outlook, though you do need to be able to use a PC with Microsoft Windows.
Getting More out of Using Microsoft Outlook
Most people only use a small part of what Outlook can do. They'll use it for email, but then use other software to do things that Outlook can do anyway.
So our course teaches you how to use Outlook properly. Yes, it fully covers email: sending, receiving and organizing your mail into folders, and creating automated rules.
But it also shows you how to use Outlook's Calendar as a diary and as a schedule of meetings. We show you how to use the Tasks folder. And you'll learn how to use the Contacts folder so all this information is together in one secure place.
You will now have a great foundation for using Outlook to not only communicate using email, but also to organize much of your life!
With every ZandaX Microsoft course, you get a workbook and exercises (downloadable from the “General Introduction” module at the start of each course). These are NOT "follow along" exercises to use during the course, but new exercises you can use afterwards to practice the skills using different examples. People tell us this is a better way to learn because it provides an opportunity to work with new data.
Our Microsoft instructors are seasoned professionals - they don't just know the software: they've used it commercially and taught it in a classroom environment for years. You won't be in better hands!
And we don’t waffle! Do you want to sit through hours of over-explaining before you get the knowledge you need? We doubt it! So we make sure that everything is covered in easy-to-follow video lessons, and we get to the point so you make the best use of your time.
