OUTLOOK 2016 • Outlook is our new email and calendaring program. • Password: Your email password your AD password, which is the same password that you log into your PC with. If you change your PC password – it will automatically change the password for your email. • The first thing you’ll want to do is customize (or set up) your defaults/options. • Click on FILE, then OPTIONS. • Under the GENERAL category you will find the following options: • You will find some office backgrounds and themes here.

OUTLOOK 2016 • Under the CALENDAR category you will find the following options: • You can set the work day start and end times, how often reminders will pop up, you can even add holidays to your calendar!
OUTLOOK 2016 • MAILBOX SIZE, ARCHIVING and SECURITY: • There is a big change in regards to mailbox size and archiving. Everyone will get a 50 gig mailbox! You don’t have to worry about running out of room anymore. Because the mailboxes are so large, there isn’t a need for archiving. • When we cutover to Outlook, your current mailbox as well as your archive will be brought over into Outlook. • Security is very different in Outlook. In GroupWise, our email was stored on a server in the computer room. Outlook email is stored in the “cloud”, which of course, if not in our computer room! Cloud storage is outside the District, on some server somewhere. Because of this, there are some precautions that you want to take in regards to what you send via email. You never want to send email that contains confidential information, such as any email or documents that contain a social security number! • If you have a document that has personal information in it and you need to share it with members of your staff the best thing to do is to save it on the shared drive. You can then send an email to your staff saying that the document is located <here>. • If you have a document that contains confidential information and you need to send to someone outside the District offices, you can contact someone in IS to help you figure out the best way to send it.
Rules Migration • Rules could not be migrated from Groupwise! • Outlook provides a wizard to walk you through the process of creating the rule on the File menu by clicking on: • Then you create a new rule and click on OK: • Or you can use the Home tab under the Move section (note section names are at the bottom):
Rules Migration • Then the Wizard walks you through the type of rule you wish to create! • Step by step directions can be found at: • https://kb.wisc.edu/office365/page.php?id=52442 • https://support.office.com/en-sg/article/Manage-email-messages-by-using-rules-c24f5dea-9465-4df4-ad17-a50704d66c59
contacts • Contacts were moved over to Outlook for you. You get to them by double clicking on the people symbol in the lower right corner of the Home tab: • All your contacts should be listed: • Unfortunately, the first time you try to auto-populate it may not work. But it is easy to fix, just type the name or partial name and press CTRL+K and it will give you a list of possible contacts. Once you use the contact it will auto-populate each time thereafter!
Trash (deleted items), Junk & clutter • Your Trash and Junk folders will be automatically cleared every 30 days! • A new feature called “Clutter” has been added • Clutter looks at what you've done in the past to determine the messages you're most likely to ignore. It then puts them here, in the Clutter folder. Just keep using email as usual and Clutter will learn which messages aren't important to you. From time to time, Clutter might get it wrong. You can move the messages we've incorrectly identified as clutter to your inbox, and Clutter will take notice. So if you cannot find something check “Clutter”!
Calendar • Switching back and forth between your calendar and email is easy. Just click on the appropriate icon located at the bottom left of the screen • SHARING YOUR CALENDAR: • Open your calendar. • Click on the SHARE CALENDAR icon located in the “ribbon” (toolbar). • A special email “sharing invitation” will open.

Office and outlook on the web • Documents that are created in the web based version are stored in the cloud! There are security risks when storing things on the cloud that you will want to consider. • You can always tell when you are in the ONLINE version of the application because it will say it:

Skype for business • Skype for Business replaces GroupWise Messenger • Sign into Skype using your email address and your AD password (the password you use to boot up your computer) • Here is a PDF that will show you how to use Skype, add a contact, send a message, etc.http://www.nocccd.edu/pdfs/SkypeQuickStartGuide.pdf • Want the mobile app? In the apple store search for “Skype for Business”; in the android store search for “Lync”
Email Security Reminders • What is phishing? Does anyone know enough about you to pose as you? https://www.lookout.com/resources/know-your-mobile/what-is-phishing • Don't open ANY attachments that end in .exe or .scrAND unless you know the person and you were expecting them to send something. Call them and see if they sent you something. • Never send passwords, credit card, SSN etc. • Don’t send anything you don’t want to see in the newspaper or on Twitter!
Cloud Services • Most new development of systems is offered in the cloud as the only option – Why? • Once something is in the cloud even if you delete it, it’s not gone! • Only protection is the contract / End User Licensing Agreement – Read it! • Refer to Cloud Solution Security Measure Guidelines on our website at: http://www.nocccd.edu/Departments/IS/documents/Cloud_Solution_Security_Measure_Guidelines.pdf
One drive • One Drive is the storage associated with Office 365 and where all your email and documents you wish to share can be stored. • To access One Drive, you select Open from any of the office applications like Word, Excel, etc. and you will see the options to view. • This PC is where your private files should be!
One drive • You can also save to One Drive, but you must be very careful when doing this because you are putting you files in the cloud! • So the rule of thumb is: Don’t put any documents out on One Drive that you are not going to share with others! Put private document on “This PC”!
Social Media best practices • Separate Work from Personal – e-Discovery; Free Speech; Privacy • Understand how security settings work • Understand how to restrict your posts to the audience you want • Remember just because you delete something does not mean it is gone – everything is stored on a backup server somewhere • Remember this is a cloud based service in most cases, treat it as such • If you don’t want it seen on the front page of the paper or in a Tweet don’t write it! • Refer to the Social Media Guidelines: http://www.nocccd.edu/Departments/IS/documents/Social_Media_Guidelines.pdf
Website reminders • Anything on a public site is available to the world! • Remember, you are representing the District if you use one for District business • Follow Board Policy: http://www.nocccd.edu/Policies/PDFs/3740.AP.final_032904.pdf • Guidelines offer additional suggestions: http://www.nocccd.edu/Departments/IS/documents/Website_Guidelines.docx (Note new version under consideration at DCC) • Consider ADA/Section 508 requirements!
