What do I learn in an Outlook course?
An Outlook course provides practical knowledge on how to use Microsoft's email and calendar service efficiently in everyday life and at work. The course is aimed at anyone who wants to improve their digital communication and organization. It explains step by step how Outlook can be used optimally.
The following topics are typically covered in an Outlook course:
- Basics of the user interface: structure of the application window, customization of toolbars and navigation elements
- Email functionalities: Recipient types (To, Cc, Bcc), read receipts, signatures, spell check, attachments, email templates, quick blocks, junk mail filter, reconciliation buttons, message recall and inserting links
- Organize your inbox: Use folders, subfolders, favorites, search folders, QuickSteps, tracking and categories for a better overview
- Use calendars efficiently: Entering and managing appointments, sharing calendars, scheduling meetings and creating and printing tasks, including serial and delegated tasks
- Manage contacts: Create and group contacts, save as favorites and print options
- Additional functions: Overview of tools such as "Clean up", "Cancel subscription", "Pin", "Weather display", "Chat", integration of OneDrive and working with aliases
