Time and Task Management using Microsoft Outlook
That's the title of the training course Jeremy Wright and I developed for Microsoft earlier this year. It's part of a multi-title training series that focuses not on software, but on business skills centered around different Microsoft Office applications. The course is now available on a subscription basis online. Here's the description:
E-mail, calendaring, and meeting management are critical activities that drive individual workers’ daily lives. So many people “live” in Microsoft® Office Outlook® 2003, making it their prime tool for communication and productivity. This course will provide experienced business professionals with a better hands-on understanding of how to manage their time more effectively, define tasks more accurately, and process incoming information more efficiently. Using Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 as a “dashboard” application, students will learn how to better manage their schedules, projects, and assignments, and how to create and respond to e-mail messages with greater confidence. |
A one-year subscription to the course costs $49.00. Note that I'm posting this just because I think it's pretty cool that Microsoft has developed a series of courses that focus on best practices for information workers rather than software competencies. I have no ongoing financial interest in these courses (it was a straightforward work for hire deal).
