Course Overview

Email has become one of the most widely used methods of communication, whether for personal or business communications. In most organizations, large or small, email is the preferred form of communicating information amongst employees. As email grows in popularity and use, most organizations have found the need to implement a corporate mail management system such as Microsoft® Office Outlook® to handle the messages and meeting invitations sent among employees.

In this course, you will use Outlook to send, receive, and manage email messages, manage your contact information, schedule appointments and meetings, create Tasks and Notes for yourself, and customize the Outlook interface to suit your working style.
