    Microsoft Office Outlook 2010 or 2013 Beginners Course: Introduction

    E-Mail is part of daily life, be it business or personal. Yet E-Mail protocol depends on whoever tells you what the protocol is. People tend to be far more informal with E-Mails than they should be, and the consequences of appearing uninformed or unprofessional can be disastrous. The Business Optimisation Training Institute offers several workshops on E-Mail and Microsoft Outlook, the worldÂ’s premier desktop application. Our first workshop is for beginners, entry level personnel and those who have never used Microsoft Outlook before. We offer a one day workshop at the completion of which, participants will receive a Certificate of Attendance. All workshop materials required by participants will be provided.
