Save 90mins A Day Using Outlook

You are great at your job but you are probably not using Microsoft Outlook anywhere near its maximum level of productivity. It’s tough enough to keep up with your day-to-day work let alone learning yet another piece of software.  I’ve been teaching time saving and productivity tips in Outlook since 2005 and have helped 1000s of Office Professionals. The average delegate attending this course discovers they can save themselves over 90mins a day.

Important Information: In this course, we will be focusing on the Classic Outlook version, rather than the New Outlook version. Additionally, the content is tailored for PC users and is not designed for Mac users.

This session is delivered by Paul Pennant, Microsoft MVP (Most Valuable Professional). Paul has dedicated over two decades to empowering Assistants and other Office Professionals through expert guidance, specialising in Microsoft Outlook, Teams & the broader M365 suite.
