FAQs
Is Microsoft Training free?
Yes, Microsoft offers free basic training on how to use Microsoft Office applications. You can learn how to use Word, Excel and PowerPoint more effectively for no cost. They also offer free cheat sheets, which show you all the most helpful keyboard shortcuts to make your work easier.
Do laptops come with Microsoft Office?
Sadly, Microsoft Office is not part of Windows and is not accessible with Microsoft laptops, as is standard. However, you can get a free trial when you first sign up, and Microsoft has been known to bundle free year-long subscriptions with the purchase of select laptops. That being said, UK students and educators can get Office 365 for free with eligible institutions. You must verify your UK school email address to claim this offer.
Can I install Microsoft Teams on my laptop?
Any laptop or home computer with Windows 11 comes with Microsoft Teams pre-installed; all you need to do is log in. If you don’t have Microsoft Teams installed, simply go to the Microsoft Store app on your computer or laptop, type “Teams” into the search bar, and download the app for free.
