Just moved to Microsoft 365? You will get to grips with Teams, OneDrive, Planner and OneNote. You will learn how to collaborate smartly in the cloud, share documents securely and make use of Word and Excel online. That way you really get more out of Microsoft 365.

Description

In this course you discover how to make the most of Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) within your organisation. You learn to work with the cloud functionalities and see how to store, share and jointly edit documents centrally, without having to manage files locally.

The focus is on online collaboration with OneDrive, Teams and Planner. You will gain insight into which app to use for which task, how to share documents via OneDrive and Teams, and how to record notes in OneNote. You will also work with Word and Excel in the browser, so that you can work on the same document together with colleagues.

On request, the trainer will also demonstrate the use of the individual Microsoft 365 apps. Afterwards you will know which app to use when, you will be able to work smoothly in the cloud and you will know how to collaborate online with Microsoft 365.

  • saving, sharing and simultaneously editing documents via OneDrive
  • making plans and assigning tasks in Planner
  • chatting, meeting and collaborating in Teams
  • recording and sharing notes in OneNote

You understand how the various apps fit together and how to use Microsoft 365 to work more productively and flexibly, in the office and on the move.

Target audience

This course is intended for organisations and employees who work with Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) and want to get more out of it.

This course suits you if:

  • You want to discover what Microsoft 365 can do for your organisation
  • You want to work with your files in the cloud, independent of time and place
  • You want to increase your productivity by using Microsoft 365 more cleverly
  • You want to know which app is best used for which task

Teaching method

During this course you work with Office 365 in an interactive way. The trainer explains the new functionality and shows how you can apply it straight away. You get hands-on with OneDrive, Teams, Planner and OneNote, so that you master online collaboration right away.

The course alternates theory with practical exercises. You work on recognisable examples from day-to-day practice, so that you can quickly apply what you have learned to your own working situation. Do you have specific questions about one of the Office programmes? The trainer can provide additional explanation or a demonstration on request.

You train in a small group, which leaves plenty of room for personal guidance and your own input. Afterwards you will receive a certificate of participation.

Prior knowledge

You do not need any specific prior knowledge to take part in this course. Do you occasionally work with programmes such as Word or Excel and can you find your way around a computer? Then you have enough basic knowledge to master Office 365.

In-company

Would you like to organise this training for a whole group or several groups? This can be cost-effective. For example, we can tailor the content entirely to your organisation, and training a whole group is also cheaper.

Are you looking at large numbers of participants or a complete academy? That involves a great deal. Consider planning and communication, for example, or identifying and agreeing the objectives and content of the training. Or differences in level, feedback mechanisms and safeguarding. Fortunately, Learnit has extensive experience in this field (more than 25 years) and we are happy to help you through this process.

Office 365 course: average 8.5 from 4 reviews

"If you work a lot in Office 365 I can recommend this course, because many examples are used as subject matter. That way you can go into examples that are important for you to work with."

A. van Gelderen - EQUANS Nederland n.v.10.0

“Good course material and plenty of time and attention from the trainer per participant. In August there were four of us, which shortened the line of contact with the trainer. That way you could get through the material quickly and did not have to wait long for the trainer's attention.”

How long does the Office 365 course take and what does it cost to take part?
The Office 365 course lasts one day. You take the course in a classroom setting, guided by an experienced trainer and in a small group. In a single course day you learn to work with Microsoft 365 apps such as OneDrive, Teams, Planner and OneNote, and you discover how to collaborate on documents in Word and Excel online. The current price can be found on the Learnit course page.
What do you learn during the Office 365 course?
On the Office 365 course you learn to collaborate in the cloud with OneDrive, Teams, Planner and OneNote. You discover which app to use for which task, how to share and manage documents, and how to work together online in Word and Excel. After this classroom-based day you will work more productively with Microsoft 365 within your organisation.
Who is the Office 365 course suitable for?
The Office 365 course is suitable for employees and organisations that have recently moved to Microsoft 365 and want to make full use of its potential. No specific prior education is required, but basic knowledge of Office programs such as Word and Excel is useful. The classroom course is aimed at anyone who wants to collaborate more productively in the cloud.
Which programmes and apps are covered on the Office 365 course?
During the Office 365 course you work with the main apps for online collaboration: OneDrive for cloud storage, Microsoft Teams for chatting and meetings, Planner for tasks, and OneNote for notes. You will also learn how to collaborate online in Word and Excel. On request, the trainer will demonstrate additional Office programmes. This way you know exactly which app to use for which tasks.
Do you need prior knowledge for the Office 365 course?
No specific prior knowledge is required for the Office 365 course, but basic experience with Office programs such as Word and Excel is useful. The course is aimed at users who have just moved to Office 365 and want to get to know the new possibilities. In one classroom day you receive practical explanations about collaborating in the cloud with OneDrive, Teams and Planner.
Do you receive a certificate after completing the Office 365 course?
Yes, after completing the Office 365 course you will receive a certificate of participation. This certificate confirms that you have attended the classroom course and have gained knowledge of OneDrive, Teams, Planner and online collaboration in Word and Excel, among other things. You can use the certificate to demonstrate your skills within your organisation or on your CV.
When should you opt for a classroom-based Office 365 course and when is e-learning or self-study via YouTube enough?
Classroom training works best if you want to use Office 365 across the organisation and have to make decisions about ways of working: where do you store files, how do you use Teams channels, when do you use Planner and when OneNote. You won't learn those trade-offs from individual YouTube clips. Learnit's course is classroom-based. You practise with OneDrive, Teams, Planner, OneNote and online collaboration in Word and Excel, and you can ask the trainer to demonstrate specific features. Self-study or e-learning is fine if you want to look up a single feature. If you want to set up a workable way of collaborating in the cloud, classroom training is more efficient.
What is the difference between the Office 365 course and a separate Teams or OneDrive course?
The Office 365 course is an overarching course in which you learn which program to use for which task within Microsoft 365. OneDrive, Teams, Planner, OneNote and online collaboration in Word and Excel are covered in relation to one another. A separate Teams or OneDrive course goes into one application in more depth and deals with advanced features within that single program. Choose the Office 365 course if your organisation has just made the switch and you want an overview of the entire collaboration landscape. Choose a specific Teams or OneDrive course if you already know the basics and only want to go into depth in that one program. The Office 365 course is taught in a classroom setting.
How do I know which Office 365 programme to use for which type of work, and does this course help with that?
Many users waste time because they choose the wrong program: an email for something that belongs in Teams, an Excel file on the local drive instead of OneDrive, or a task list in Word instead of Planner. Learnit's Office 365 course explicitly deals with which program suits which kind of work. You learn when to use OneDrive, Teams, Planner, OneNote, Word or Excel, and how these tools work together in the cloud. The course is classroom-based. Afterwards you can share documents via OneDrive, plan tasks in Planner, hold meetings and chat in Teams, and collaborate online in Word and Excel. On request, the trainer will demonstrate specific programs from your own working practice.
How does the Office 365 course compare with the free Microsoft Learn modules or help from an internal key user?
Microsoft Learn is free and thorough, but you work through separate modules per app on your own. You miss the overview: which program do you use for which type of work? An internal key user knows your organisation, but often knows one or two apps in depth rather than the connections between OneDrive, Teams, Planner, OneNote, Word and Excel. Learnit's classroom course deals with precisely those connections: cloud storage, online collaboration and task management in a single story. You can ask questions about your own working situation and the trainer can demonstrate specific Office programs on request. Choose Microsoft Learn to go deeper into a single app, and this course for a structured overview.
I have been working with Office 365 for a few years but mainly use Outlook and Word. Does this course still have added value for me?
Yes, provided you want to start collaborating actively in the cloud. The course focuses explicitly on the collaboration side of Microsoft 365: OneDrive, Teams, Planner and OneNote, plus online co-authoring in Word and Excel. If you currently work mainly locally and send documents round by e-mail, the course delivers immediate gains. You learn to share documents instead of mailing versions, to assign tasks via Planner, and to hold meetings and chat in Teams. If you already use these collaboration apps on a daily basis and are looking to go deeper into one specific app, a separate Teams or Excel course makes more sense. The course is classroom-based. The focus is on breadth and coherence, not on in-depth expertise per app.
Can we also run this Office 365 course in-company now that our organisation has just moved to Microsoft 365?
Yes, the Office 365 course lends itself well to an in-company delivery, particularly when an organisation has recently moved to Microsoft 365. The course is taught in a classroom setting. In an in-company version the entire team takes the course at the same time, which speeds up adoption: afterwards everyone works to the same agreements in OneDrive, Teams and Planner. On request, the trainer can demonstrate the use of specific Office programs, tailored to the working processes within your organisation. This is usually more efficient than leaving employees to work out individually how documents are shared or where Teams ends and SharePoint begins. For a quotation and scheduling of an in-company programme, contact Learnit.
