Who is this course for?

This course is perfect for you if you're stressed out and have many things to do - especially if you're already using Microsoft Outlook.

Important note: This is not a general Outlook beginner course. We focus on calendar and task-tracking functionality. For time management, we start from the basics.

This is also not a theory-only course. We focus on the practical application of proven fundamental principles and how they work together.

This course covers established, proven time management methods and their systematic implementation - expect practical applications of well-tested principles, not revolutionary secrets.
