Microsoft Software Assurance E-Learning Overview
The Microsoft Software Assurance E-Learning benefit provides access to self-paced, interactive training developed by Microsoft experts. The thorough online learning experience incorporates features that are designed to help improve your organisation's product proficiency and boost productivity.

These learning opportunities help end-users get the most out of new technology and the software they use every day. Courses are designed for maximum skills-transfer in minimal time. Assessments, hands-on virtual labs, expert advice, and an interactive, nonlinear approach make e-learning an engaging and flexible experience.

E-learning will help you get the maximum value for your software investment by:

  • Lowering training costs. E-learning eliminates the time and expense associated with off-site training.

  • Preparing end-users and IT professionals for deployments. Employees can learn how to use new software before it is deployed, resulting in fewer support calls and increased productivity. Software Assurance E-Learning helps IT professionals prepare to successfully deploy, migrate, and support Microsoft technologies for your organisation.

  • Provide flexible, convenient learning opportunities. E-learning provides a rich, interactive learning experience that is available online 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so employees can take courses at their own pace when and where it's convenient for them.
