Course Description
Outlook 2013 Level 1 is an instructor-led course that covers the basic concepts and skills to begin using Microsoft Outlook 2013: How to read and send e-mail, manage contacts, track tasks, and schedule appointments. This course, and the following one, maps to the Microsoft Office Specialist exam for Outlook 2013.

Students will benefit most from this course if they want to accomplish basic workplace tasks in Outlook 2013, or if they want to have a solid foundation for continuing on to become an Outlook expert. If they intend to take a Microsoft Office Specialist exam for Outlook, this course is a good place to start their preparation, but they will need to continue both courses in the series to be fully prepared for the exam.

The course assumes students know how to use a computer, and that they’re familiar with Microsoft Windows . It does not assume that they’ve used a different version of Outlook or a similar desktop application before.
