Overview

Learn the basics of Office 365 groups, where teams can collaborate easily using a single shared account for Outlook, OneDrive, Skype, and SharePoint.

Office 365 groups allow teams to collaborate quickly and easily. In an Office 365 group, all team members have access to a shared email inbox, calendar, file repository, and notebook. Team members can quickly start conversations with the team, share documents to collaborate on, and initiate impromptu Skype group meetings.

In this course, David Rivers walks users through the basics of Office 365 groups, from creating a group and adding members to finding and joining other groups. Learn how to communicate with colleagues in a group, schedule group meetings, and collaborate on documents and larger projects.
