1. Specific objectives
Unit 1
In this unit we will analyze the improvements in Office 365 and how these affect small and medium-sized businesses as well as users.
Unit 2
In this unit, we will see which Office 365 functions improve performance and productivity. We will also see how users' communication can speed up their work. We will analyze the management of contacts, groups and calendars and their impact on productivity. Finally, we will present an example in which a user makes better use of his time by using these Office 365 functions.
Unit 3
In this unit, you'll learn about the benefits of Microsoft Office Web Apps—convenient companion applications to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote—that give you the freedom to work with your Office documents from virtually anywhere using a supported browser.
Unit 4
Office 365 can have different impacts depending on the company. One option for users who are frequently on the move is to have a document library for each department. This way, information is secured and its editing controlled. If users are organized to have everything they need in SharePoint, then their ability to work will not be affected by their movements.
Unit 5
In this unit, we will take a closer look at SharePoint technology and its advantages in conjunction with Office 365. We will highlight more detailed options for the service and also look at different pricing plans and the conveniences of each.
