About the course
Tired of juggling spreadsheets, sticky notes, or email threads to keep your team organized? Microsoft Lists is your solution and this micro-course will show you exactly how to use it. In this quick, hands-on course, you'll learn how to create, customize, and collaborate with Microsoft Lists, a powerful tool in Microsoft 365 that helps you track information, organize work, and improve team communication without needing to write a single line of code. Whether you're managing projects, planning events, tracking assets, or building a custom workflow, Lists makes it simple to build smart, structured data solutions that you can share and update in real time. You’ll start by learning the basics: what Lists is, when to use it, and how it compares to tools like Excel or Planner.

By the end of this course, you’ll have the confidence and skills to use Microsoft Lists in your daily work and finally ditch the cluttered spreadsheets and disconnected workflows for good.
