The MS Outlook hands on training program is designed to prepare the student for the Microsoft Certified Application Specialist (MCAS) exam for Outlook. This program replaces what used to be called the Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS). In fact, Microsoft has designed the MCAS Outlook to include all levels of usability of the application. Microsoft previously had three levels of Outlook training. Now with the changes for the 2007 Outlook product, there is only one level and one test.
You also have the option of taking a one day, MS Outlook Basic User Class. The full two day program, however, offers a more extensive edition of Outlook and demonstrates the tricks, shortcuts and time saving tools of the program. The full two day class prepares you for the MCAS Outlook certifcation and makes you the "go-to" person in your office for Outlook.
