FAQ's
We know team training comes with a lot of questions, who, what, how many, when, where, and sometimes even why. To save you a few clicks (and a few minutes), we’ve pulled together the most common ones we get from other HR managers, L&D teams, and people just like you.
Where can this Microsoft Office 365 Workshop training be delivered?
We can run your Microsoft Office 365 Workshop wherever your team feels most comfortable. If you’d like us to visit your workplace, we’ll bring the training directly to you. If you prefer online learning, we’ll deliver the workshop live via web conferencing, making it easy for staff to join from anywhere. Some clients choose a blended option, with part of the group in the room and others online, and that works too. The key is flexibility, so the delivery fits neatly around your team’s way of working.
How many staff can attend a Microsoft Office 365 Workshop session?
The workshops are structured to work best with small to mid-sized teams, ensuring that everyone has the chance to ask questions and practise. We’ll recommend an ideal number of attendees based on your specific training goals and the time available. However, we’re always happy to adjust to your requirements, as we know that team sizes and learning needs vary across organisations. What matters most is that every participant feels supported and leaves with new skills they can use right away.
Can we schedule the Microsoft Office 365 Workshop training at a time that suits us?
Yes, scheduling is very flexible. You can book a half-day session for an introduction, a full day for a deeper dive, or split sessions over multiple dates to reduce workplace disruption. We’ll collaborate with you to find a timetable that works around your staff’s commitments and ensures learning stays productive rather than rushed.
What will my team be able to do after the Microsoft Office 365 Workshop?
After the workshop, your team will know how to make full use of Office 365’s key apps and features. They’ll be able to collaborate in real time with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, use Teams to communicate more effectively, and manage documents through OneDrive and SharePoint. The focus is on giving staff the confidence to work smarter, communicate better, and get more value out of the tools they already have access to.
Do participants need any prior knowledge of Microsoft Office 365?
That depends on the level you choose. If it’s an introductory workshop, no prior experience is required, and we’ll start with the essentials. For teams looking for more advanced training, participants should already feel confident with the basics of Office apps so we can build on those foundations. This way, nobody feels out of their depth, and the session stays engaging for everyone.
Can the Microsoft Office 365 Workshop content be customised to our needs?
Yes. While we offer a structured workshop outline, we can easily adapt it to match the way your team uses Office 365 in their daily work. That could mean focusing more on Teams and collaboration tools or emphasising document management and workflow improvements. Tailoring the course ensures that the training feels immediately relevant and practical to your staff.
Will staff receive a certificate of completion?
Yes, every participant who completes the workshop will receive a digital certificate. This gives them recognition for their learning and provides your business with a record of professional development. It can also be shared on LinkedIn or included in staff training files, demonstrating the investment you’ve made in developing your team’s skills.
Do you provide support after the Microsoft Office 365 Workshop training?
Yes, ongoing support is included at no extra cost. If a participant has questions later about using a feature, they can simply reach out to us by email. We’ll provide clear guidance so they can continue applying what they learned. This support gives your organisation peace of mind that the benefits of the workshop extend well beyond the training day itself.
