  • Microsoft Copilot
    10 - 11am 08/11/2024

    Microsoft 365 Copilot brings the power of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) to your digital tools, helping you work smarter and faster. Whether you’re drafting documents, analysing data, or preparing presentations, Copilot can assist by automating routine tasks and providing suggestions. Learning how to effectively use AI features will give you a head start, and the ability to adapt to new technologies will be invaluable as you encounter different tools throughout your studies and career.

  • Microsoft Word
    2- 3pm 08/11/2024

     Microsoft Word is one of the most widely used word processors, but the skills you learn here apply to any similar program. Being able to format documents, use templates, and insert images or tables will help you present your ideas clearly and professionally. Whether you’re working on reports, essays, or presentations, mastering these skills will set you up for success, no matter which platform you use.

  • Microsoft PowerPoint
    10 - 11am 15/11/2024

    Creating engaging presentations is a valuable skill that goes beyond just using Microsoft PowerPoint. Knowing how to design slides, add images, animations, and organise content effectively will help you communicate your ideas clearly and professionally. These skills are useful not only for school projects but also for future presentations in any setting. Whether you’re using PowerPoint or another presentation software, understanding how to structure and deliver information visually will give you confidence and versatility across different platforms.

  • Microsoft Excel
    10 - 11am 22/11/2024

    Spreadsheets are powerful tools for organising data, analysing information, and creating charts. With Microsoft Excel, you can learn how to manage data efficiently, but the skills you develop will also be useful in other spreadsheet programs. Understanding how to use formulas, sort data, and create visualisations can help you in a range of subjects, from maths to business, and even personal projects.

  • Microsoft Outlook
    10 - 11am 29/11/2024

    Email is still one of the most common ways to communicate professionally, and Microsoft Outlook helps you manage your emails, calendar, and contacts all in one place. The skills you develop—such as organising your inbox, scheduling meetings, and setting up tasks—will help you stay on top of your commitments. These abilities are useful across different email and calendar apps, so you can be organised and responsive wherever you go.

  • Microsoft OneDrive
    10 - 11am 06/12/2024

    Storing your files securely and accessing them from any device is a must-have skill for students. Microsoft OneDrive lets you keep all your documents, presentations, and photos safe in the cloud, but learning how to manage files in cloud storage will benefit you across other services too. With these skills, you’ll never have to worry about losing your work or being tied to a single device.

  • Microsoft Teams
    10 - 11am 13/12/2024

    Collaboration is a key part of modern learning, and Microsoft Teams makes it easy to connect with classmates, share documents, and work on projects together in real-time. The skills you gain here—like organising group discussions, sharing files, and scheduling meetings—are transferable to other communication tools, helping you stay productive and connected, no matter what platform you use.
