CIAOPS Need to Know Webinar–June 2017

laptop-eyes-technology-computer

We are half way through 2017 already! Wow, where did the time go? Good news is that the CIAOPS Need to Know webinar is back again with a focus on some little known functionality in Office 365. For June, aside from the usual news and update we are doing to do a deep dive into information rights management (IRM) in Office 365. IRM provides you the ability to protect your document no matter where they are shared on the Internet. It allows you to effectively embed permissions inside your documents. This is a great way to protect your intellectual property and you’ll see how to do this if you attend the webinar.

Understanding collaboration in Office 365 course

I’m happy to announce a new course is available from the CIAOPS Academy. This course will focus on the collaboration tools available in Office 365. This means SharePoint, Teams, Yammer, OneDrive and more. You’ll not only learn how these products work but you’ll also learn how to use them effectively to increase the productivity of your business.

The course will divided into 5 live sessions held every Friday in June. Thus:

Friday June 2nd 2017 – SharePoint & OneDrive
Friday June 9th 2017 – Groups, Teams and Staffhub
Friday June 16th 2017 – Yammer & Skype for Business
Friday June 23rd 2017 – Delve & Planner
Friday June 30th 2017 – Migration and Driving adoption

The sessions will run for 1 hour and be recorded. Session time are:

8am – 9am – Sydney, Australia
3pm – 4pm – PDT, USA
6pm – 7pm – EDT, USA
11pm – 12am – BST, UK

The recordings of each session will be available shortly after each session is completed. Although each session will run for 60 minutes, there will be an open Q and A at the end that will continue as long as people have questions not answered in the session.

All the material, including recordings, course notes and additional offers will be available for download after the fact.

The material presented during this course is a great way to fast track you understanding and adoption of Office 365 adoption tools in your business. Not only will you see the technology in use but the sessions will include hands on material for all students to participate in, so you’ll be directly interacting with the technology during the time. This way you’ll get to see and experience exactly what is possible with Office 365 collaboration technologies.

I think the key slide to help explain the new world Microsoft Teams brings us is shown above. Basically, Microsoft Teams brings a significant shift in the way collaboration is conducted inside an organisation as well as who is in control of that environment. Users are demanding the tools that Microsoft Teams provides and have working with them using Shadow IT. Microsoft Teams provides the latest collaboration features easily provisioned without the need for an IT Administrator.

These changes are great for users but bring challenges for IT Admins. If you want to hear more details about these and what Microsoft Teams can provide your business have a listen to to the webinar recording.

Thanks to all who attended and asked all those great questions. See you next month.
