Microsoft Office Outlook 2003
Calendar and Task Management

Course Description

This class is the second in our Outlook 2003 series. Therefore, it is designed for the relatively experienced Outlook e-mail user who is already somewhat familiar with the Outlook 2003 interface. In this class you will learn to extend the use of Outlook tools beyond inter-office and Internet e-mail.

By the end of this class, you will have a solid understanding of how the Outlook Calendar, Task List, and Contacts interact. You will learn to create simple and complex appointments, so that you can effectively manage your time—stress free. You will also learn to change the attributes of an appointment.

In doing so, you will find out how to use color-coding and categories to aid you in prioritizing your work. You will set reminders to keep you on top of your workload; and you will use status indicators to show yourself and others when you are free, busy, or out of the office at a specific time. We will also share time-saving methods to help you recreate appointments on your calendar that occur regularly, without having to retype them.

In addition, you will be able to schedule events that occur on a specific day or on multiple days without necessarily affecting your availability to take meetings and set appointments. You will be trained to effectively manage your workload by storing contact information, tracking activity with that person or group, and assigning tasks to them—all from the comfort of your office.
