Clients Love My Sessions
“I recently took a OneDrive class with Carlos as the instructor, and I cannot recommend it enough! From the start, Carlos made the learning experience incredibly engaging and approachable. His ability to break down complex concepts into simple, easy-to-understand explanations made the class enjoyable for both beginners and more experienced users."
Tabatha / IT / Oklahoma City, OK
“I had a great training recently with Simplified365 on how to get more out of Copilot (AI), and it was eye-opening. I got to pick what I wanted to learn about, and the training was curated to me and real-world use cases. One of the best takeaways for me was learning how to have Copilot go through all my sent emails within a timeframe, pull out the contacts, drop them into Excel, including a 'notes' section and then export them into VCF files I can load onto my phone. What?! That alone will save me hours I think."
