Take control of your inbox and your calendar
Most of us don’t manage Outlook so much as survive it. The inbox fills faster than we can empty it, the calendar books itself, and the search box only gets used when something important has gone missing.
Outlook training at Lighthouse Training is about building a system, not memorizing features. After more than three decades of teaching, I’ve seen the same inbox problems again and again. The good news is that most of them can be fixed with a few practical habits and the right Outlook tools. Set Outlook up well, and much of the routine mail can sort itself, meetings can be scheduled with less back-and-forth, and what matters rises to the top.
Outlook for Windows is changing. Training can cover classic Outlook, the new Outlook, or both, with side-by-side comparisons that make the differences clear.
Everyday Tools: Foundations
Get comfortable with the basics. Write and organize email, keep folders that make sense, use the calendar and contacts, and find any messages more quickly.
Time-Savers: Working Smarter
Stop sorting by hand. Use rules, categories, flags, and Quick Steps to handle repetitive mail, and set up signatures, templates, and scheduling tools to save minutes every day.
Specialty Tools: Advanced
Make Outlook work like a system. Build advanced rules and search folders, manage meetings with the Scheduling Assistant and booking pages, archive and clean up a large mailbox, and connect email to tasks and follow-ups so nothing slips.
