Skillsoft is a free, web-based program available to all employees. I have some Outlook tips that are specifically geared for us, including sharing your calendar with your entire association using a reference group. If you haven’t checked it out yet, go to my blog site.

If you weren’t able to attend the CCE Tech Fair this past summer, some of the webinars were recorded.

Watch this one! “The Quick Access Toolbar”.

What I recommend are the previous webinars that have been recorded. Installation and activation of the Microsoft Office Professional Plus suite.

Microsoft does 15-minute weekly online trainings but the upcoming ones are all related to Office 2013. CIT currently provides free technical support to the Cornell community for: Microsoft Exchange E-mail Services (including Exchange Server, Active Directory, Outlook and Entourage e-mail/calendar clients, and Outlook Web Access).

Microsoft has a variety of free, online trainings on their website. I want to encourage everyone do go through one or two of these, even the most advanced users learn something new when taking these trainings! A simple, newly-learned task could save you time and headaches later when working with e-mail and/or documents! The trainings that I recommend below are not scheduled events, they can be done at your own pace. There are many free, online resources and trainings that can help you advance your Microsoft Office skills.
