Microsoft Bookings is part of Microsoft365 and is available to YSJ staff with A3/A5 licence* to automate a booking service that is cross checked with your Outlook calendar. This course focusses on setting up a personal tutorial booking service.

If you want to use the Shared Bookings service then please contact Digital Training to arrange a bespoke session. The Shared Bookings service allows for a more complicated arrangement involving multiple members of staff, linking to a shared mailbox, or allowing additional questions to be added to gather information.

We can also provide bespoke sessions of this Personal Bookings course (or the Shared Bookings course) for teams within the University.

This course includes:

  • Who has access to a Bookings licence
  • Getting into Bookings
  • Personal vs shared bookings calendars
  • Creating a personal bookings calendar
    • Different meeting types
    • Setting the schedule
  • Managing, moving and cancelling bookings
  • Troubleshooting Bookings
  • Time to set up your own personal Bookings calendar whilst help is available
