Getting Started with Microsoft 365

By the end of this course, users should be comfortable with logging into and out of their accounts, and modifying basic account settings. They will become familiar with the apps and services available in their subscription and how to communicate with others using OneDrive, as well as perform administrative tasks (such as managing users and groups within Microsoft 365), manage domains, and use the Security and Compliance Center.
 

This course assumes the user understands the basics of using a Windows-based computer. Students should be comfortable using the keyboard, mouse, and Start menu. Understanding and experience with printing and using a web browser is an asset, but not required.
 

Getting Started

Additionally, they will learn how to download and install Office apps onto their computer, and sign in to their Microsoft 365 account from Office apps.

Your Subscription Package
