The days of waiting for and driving to a class on a particular application or topic are gone. With Clip Training, you can access training from the comfort of your desk anytime, and you can consume training in two different ways. 

You can watch all the training videos in a pre-set learning path, if you are new to an app or want a more lecture-style approach. Most learning paths take about 45 minutes. 

You can also consume training videos, one at a time. Many people wait until they discover they need to use a feature in an application they don’t know how to use. Then, they look for the relevant videowatch it and move on with their work. 

3. It fits into your schedule.

The 2 – 4 min duration of most training videos makes it easy to fit training into your schedule.

New videos that highlight the latest features of Microsoft applications are added to your training portal regularly. 

5. Short quizzes ensure you understand a training video.

You can take a short quiz at the end of every video to ensure you understand the key concepts and steps illustrated in the video.

There are dozens of kinds of training available, including Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint Online.
