You're Already Paying for Microsoft 365. Most of Your Team Isn't Using It.

Academy365 turns the licence you've already bought into productivity you can actually see, without a single day in a classroom.

Why your team needs Academy365?

For Business Owners

Get the ROI you were promised from your Microsoft 365 spend.

For Ops & HR leads

Onboard new starters in days, not weeks, with zero extra admin.

For IT Managers

Fewer “how do I…” conversations. More self-sufficient users. 

For Compliance Leads

Documented, trackable security awareness training.

Three Problems Academy365 Solves

Sound familiar? These are the three we hear most, and what Academy365 does about them.

"We pay for it, but no-one uses it."

Copilot, Planner, SharePoint, Whiteboard. Most of the value sits unopened until someone shows your team how to use it. 

"Our people learn from YouTube."

Free videos are inconsistent, out of date, and never built for your business. Our Academy365 content was created to solve your problems. 

"One phishing click could cost us everything."

Three dedicated Security Awareness modules give your team the instincts to spot and stop attacks before they land. 

What's Inside Academy365

Twenty-four on-demand courses. More than seven hundred individual video lessons. Five programme areas covering everything from a brand-new starter opening Outlook for the first time to a power user building a model-driven app in Dataverse.

Every course is bite-sized, browser-based and updated as Microsoft updates the products. Your team can pick up exactly the lesson they need, exactly when they need it.

Who Academy365 is for

  • Growing SMBs paying for Microsoft 365 and wanting more of the productivity they’re already paying for.
  • Operations and HR leads responsible for onboarding new starters quickly and consistently.
  • IT managers who want fewer “how do I…?” tickets and more self-sufficient users.
  • Compliance-conscious businesses who need demonstrable security awareness training across their staff.
  • Hybrid and remote teams who can’t easily get everyone in a classroom on the same day.
