Microsoft Outlook Tutorials

It is used to create, organize and track several types of items such as e-mail messages, contacts, appointments and tasks. This page provides users with one central location for all Outlook and Outlook Web App (OWA) training resources.
Online Tutorials
During the summer 2013 quarter, Information Technology Services will upgrade the existing e-mail from Microsoft Exchange Outlook to Microsoft Office 365 Outlook. This upgrade will affect students, faculty and staff. The Office.com Training and lynda.com websites provide extensive online training resources, many with video tutorials, which will help campus users make a smoother transition from the current e-mail system to the new one. For more information about this project, please visit the Microsoft Office 365 Outlook E-mail Upgrade page.
