C2k Microsoft O365

Microsoft O365 Support Sessions

EA C2k eLearning Team will be offering a support sessions to help schools get started with Microsoft O365. These will be live, forty-five minute sessions providing support for teachers starting out with Microsoft O365. Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come-first served basis and are open to Primary, Post-Primary, Special school and EOTAS.

Please note these sessions are unlikely to be sufficient in themselves as stand-alone training. They are designed to complement existing help materials and to act as a springboard for further exploration. Most benefit will be derived by integrating the support sessions with other materials available through Microsoft Support Site and suggested during the sessions.
