The IEAA Microsoft Outlook Diploma for an Executive Assistant is a great way to gain the skills needed to be an efficient Executive Assistant or administrative professional. Outlook includes diary management, travel management, email management and time management tools.
Our Microsoft Outlook Diploma is delivered online by the IEAA in collaboration with Microsoft Platinum Partners. This training course has been designed to ensure that learners gain practical skills, knowledge and confidence to use Microsoft Outlook to an advanced level.
Diploma Format
The training is conducted online using a live server. This means that the training programme will instruct you, provide assessments and correct your mistakes. This simulates having a personal IT trainer, the virtual tutor instructs, corrects, and offers examples. However, it has the benefits of online training, in that you can train when you chose from any place with an internet connection.
