Introduction to OneNote

OneNote is useful as a digital replacement for your paper notebook and has the advantage of being fully searchable as well as making organising information in categories really easy. It’s useful for planning projects and for working in teams too. If you are using Office 365 in the Cloud you can collaborate using OneNote.

This course is only available for private bookings, either for groups or as a one-to-one, held online via Zoom or in the classroom. Please get in touch for availability.

Course Overview

This Introduction to OneNote course can be held either in the classroom or online as Live Online Learning. The outline for both formats is the same, however the classroom session offers more time with the trainer to work on exercises, ask questions and complete activities.

We are currently only able to offer private bookings. Please get in touch for more information, pricing and availability.
