FAQ's
We know team training comes with a lot of questions, who, what, how many, when, where, and sometimes even why. To save you a few clicks (and a few minutes), we’ve pulled together the most common ones we get from other HR managers, L&D teams, and people just like you.
Where can this Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools training be delivered?
We can deliver Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools training in a way that best suits your workplace. If you’d like face-to-face sessions, we’ll come to your office and work directly with your team. For remote or multi-location staff, we can run engaging live online sessions so everyone can participate no matter where they are. Many organisations choose a blended model, where some learners join in person and others log in virtually. The choice is entirely yours, and we’ll make sure the delivery is smooth in whichever format you prefer.
How many staff can attend a Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools training session?
These workshops are designed for small to medium groups so participants can ask questions, practise, and get personal guidance throughout the day. We’ll suggest the ideal number of attendees for your team’s session, based on the outcomes you’re after and the type of content covered. That said, we understand every organisation is different, so we’ll happily adjust to suit your staff numbers. The goal is to make sure everyone feels involved, rather than overwhelmed, during the session.
Can we schedule the Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools training at a time that suits us?
Absolutely. We’ll work around your business priorities, so training takes place when it has the least impact on day-to-day operations. Whether that’s a half-day session to introduce the essentials, a full day to dive deeper, or several shorter sessions spread out over a few weeks, we’ll make it work. Our flexible scheduling means your team can focus on learning without feeling rushed or distracted by competing deadlines.
What will my team be able to do after the Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools course?
By the end of the course, your staff will have the skills to get more out of the Microsoft 365 suite. They’ll know how to collaborate using shared documents, manage files effectively in OneDrive, and streamline communication through Teams and Outlook. In short, they’ll walk away with practical tools and shortcuts that help them save time and work smarter every day. The emphasis is always on skills they can use immediately back at their desks.
Do participants need any prior knowledge of Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools?
This depends on the level of training you book. For introductory sessions, no prior knowledge is necessary — we start with the basics and build up gradually. If you’re looking at intermediate or advanced courses, staff should already feel comfortable with the core apps and functions. That way, they’ll be ready to extend their skills into more complex areas without feeling lost.
Can the Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools training content be customised to our needs?
Yes. Many organisations are happy with the standard outline, but we also understand that every workplace has unique processes. If you’d like us to, we can adapt examples and exercises to fit your team’s daily workflows, files, or projects. This makes the training immediately more relevant and helps participants see how the tools apply directly to the way they already work.
Will staff receive a certificate of completion?
Yes, everyone who takes part will receive a PDF certificate once they’ve completed the course. This provides a clear record of their learning and can be shared with managers, HR teams, or even on LinkedIn. It’s a nice way for participants to showcase their new skills, and a great way for your organisation to demonstrate its investment in professional development.
Do you provide support after the Microsoft 365 Productivity Tools training?
Yes, lifetime support is included with every course. That means if your team has questions weeks or even months later, they can simply email us and get help from a trainer. This ongoing support ensures the training doesn’t just end when the session finishes — it continues as your staff put their new knowledge into practice. It’s our way of making sure the skills really stick and keep adding value long after the course.

Prior Knowledge
This course is designed for users who have basic familiarity with Microsoft applications and want to learn how to use Microsoft 365’s productivity features effectively.

All exercise files needed for the course will be provided. In some cases, you may receive them by email prior to the training so you can download them in advance. Otherwise, everything will be supplied during the session, and no preparation is required.
Note About Different Versions
As Microsoft 365 is continuously updated, the features covered in this course reflect the latest version available. While core concepts remain consistent, new features and improvements are regularly added to the platform. We will highlight any significant recent changes during the training session.
