The COVID-19 pandemic has rescaled our timelines of transformation, requiring delivery of organizations’ two-year visions in only two quarters or even two months. In the process, digital enablers developed during the past two decades have seen global and multi-generational adoption; at the same time, though, “lessons learned” in past disruptive epochs have not been enough to guide us through what’s now or into what’s next. We’ve invited Peter Coffee, noted futurist and VP for Strategic Research at Salesforce, for an update to his phenomenal talk last year: a futurist’s global perspective about what truly is “different this time.”

In many businesses, there is no end in sight to the work-from-home trend for their employees. This makes it critical to find new ways for working collaboratively from a distance. While there are many collaboration tools out there like Slack and Google Drive, Microsoft Teams ranks at the top for creating a flexible and professional online working environment for employers of all sizes.

During this webinar, Charlotte Augenstein, ICT-DM Regional Director in Los Angeles along with Carlton Card, Modern Workplace Specialist at Microsoft will show you how to bring MS Teams training to your campus, and why students should consider getting this certification.
