Microsoft Outlook

Most computer training companies offer two Outlook courses, Level 1 and Level 2, that require two separate days of training. We offer an intensive course that covers the best features from Level 1 and Level 2. This is the most efficient course to master Outlook, which is the hub of all corporate activities.

In the Microsoft Outlook class, attendees learn about advanced features of email, efficient management of the INBOX, customization of views, rules, conditional formatting, categories, calendars, people contacts, tasks, and many other time savers.

The instructor will teach the class using MS Outlook 365. Other versions have the same core features and differ only slightly.
