- GUIDED PROJECT 1
- Creating a Remote Work Starter Packet Using Microsoft 365
- In this project, you will take the role of an Operations Coordinator responsible for organizing a company’s new Hybrid/Remote Work process. The organization currently lacks clear remote work guidelines, approval tracking is inconsistent, and important documents are stored in different locations. Your task is to create a Remote Work Starter Packet that employees and managers can use as a single reference point. You will use Microsoft Word to create a policy document, Microsoft Excel to design a request tracker, Microsoft PowerPoint to present the policy, and OneDrive to organize and share files through cloud storage. Throughout the project, you will apply workplace documentation, spreadsheet organization, presentation design, and cloud collaboration practices commonly used in professional environments. By completing this project, you will understand how Microsoft 365 tools work together to support organizational communication, documentation, and workflow management.
