Outlook 2010 and Collaboration in Office 2010

Overview/Description
The new and enhanced collaboration features of Office 2010 enable users to work in unison to create content, regardless of their location. Enhancements to many of the Office products enable users to work more efficiently, using a combination of their local computer, a browser, a mobile phone or other Web-enabled device, and a phone integrated with Microsoft Office Communications Server. This course explores the new features of Outlook 2010, including changes to the interface, the introduction of the Conversation view and QuickSteps, as well as Outlook Social Connector. It also explores new features and enhancements to OneNote 2010, including linked notes, improved integration with other Office products, and enhanced collaboration features. The new features and enhancements of SharePoint Workspace 2010, formerly known as Groove, are also discussed. The course also introduces Office Web Apps, which are online extensions of Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote that allow you to view and edit files stored in Windows Live SkyDrive, on your organization’s SharePoint implementation, or on SharePoint Online. The Office Web Apps can also be used to create documents, presentations, workbooks, and notebooks within a browser. Finally the course introduces Office Mobile, which allows you to use your phone to access several of the Office applications, and to access and edit documents, presentations, and workbooks.
