The public sector is under constant pressure to deliver more - with fewer resources, tighter budgets and higher expectations. To meet these challenges, teams need to work smarter, communicate better and embrace digital transformation. That’s where Microsoft 365 training makes all the difference.
At ModernGov, we provide bespoke Microsoft 365 training packages designed specifically for public sector organisations. Our training helps your teams understand, adopt and maximise the full suite of Microsoft tools - from Teams and SharePoint to Excel, Power BI, Outlook and the innovative Copilot AI assistant.
What Is Microsoft 365 and Why Does It Matter?
Microsoft 365 isn’t just email and documents - it’s a complete digital workplace that empowers public sector teams to collaborate securely, manage data effectively, and communicate seamlessly across departments and locations. It includes powerful applications such as:
-
Microsoft Teams – A central hub for communication, file sharing, meetings and collaboration. Perfect for hybrid and remote working environments.
-
SharePoint and OneDrive – Secure platforms for document management and sharing, ensuring staff have access to the right information when they need it.
-
Word, Excel, and PowerPoint – The core productivity apps, enhanced with automation and AI to streamline reporting, analysis and presentation design.
-
Outlook and OneNote – Tools that simplify organisation, scheduling, and note-taking - helping staff manage busy workloads efficiently.
-
Power BI and Power Automate – Data-driven tools that visualise information and automate routine tasks, freeing up valuable time.
-
Microsoft Copilot – An AI-powered assistant built into the Microsoft 365 suite, helping users draft content, analyse data, summarise meetings and more.
When your teams understand how to use these tools together, the result is a connected, efficient and digitally confident workforce.
