Re: Learning Pathways
theric We haven't finished migrating to SharePoint Online yet, so we haven't deployed Learning Pathways. There is a lot of training material out there but it's difficult to find the good stuff that's actually going to help you. Have you come across the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/customlearning/custom_successcenter yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-QFDNRZkGE is the one I've found most helpful, even in advance of deploying LP. From memory, the first half is dedicated to the end user experience, and the second half is dedicated to the admin experience (roughly speaking). I've had good feedback from sharing it elsewhere.1.5KViews0likes1CommentRe: Learning Pathways
TimLB In theory that sounds like it would work, but it's all a bit beyond me, to be honest. We're fairly strictly segregated between hardware support (like me) and people that might know how to do this (various developer teams). I'll let you know how I/we get on.1.5KViews0likes3CommentsLearning Pathways
Afternoon all (here in the UK anyway) My employer has just deployed a Learning Management System despite there being a huge amount of crossover with Office 365 and Learning Pathways in particular (don't ask!) They're now asking if Learning Pathways is LTI (Learning Tools Interoperability) compatible so that statistics can feed into the LMS we've purchased. Does anyone know anything about this? Many thanks JonathanSolved1.6KViews0likes5CommentsRe: Using Microsoft Learning Pathways to drive adoption
Scarlett725 That's great to hear. I'm glad it's proved useful. I don't know as I haven't attended any yet, but some of the webinars https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/upgrade-workshops-landing-page may prove useful as well.2.1KViews1like0CommentsRe: Using Microsoft Learning Pathways to drive adoption
Scarlett725 We haven't done yet but we're planning to so I'd be interested in feedback on this too. UPDATE: I've just watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lbmEHt1ITA It may not be exactly the kind of thing you're after but it gives a good run down on everything from provisioning the site to how to do admin around what is available to your users (i.e. making visible what is most useful, and hiding stuff that isn't relevant). This one's only 24:10. If you specifically want that admin content, it's from about 14:00 in. Have you seen this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWYStyDhutw presented by Karuana_Gatimu_MSFT et al? It's a hands-on demo of the whole process so there might be something useful. I haven't seen it myself as yet.2.4KViews1like4CommentsRe: Deploying Yammer to 10,000's of colleagues that don't have corporate email
Karl_Brooks I didn't have a chance yesterday but just did a search and found an entry on answers.microsoft.com https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_yammer-mso_o365brs/how-do-i-add-members-to-yammer-without-a-work-e/5526ed25-68c1-4079-903a-1c2749ee7721, which contains a link to https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Managing-your-Yammer-users-Yammer-admin-guide-0fc72b66-cbf1-4202-bcf0-f2174ea96798?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US Let me know if this is of any help.1.9KViews0likes1CommentRe: {Question / Suggestion} - Is there a way to email files or links directly from Teams?
AlexB42 I may be missing (part of) the point here, but since files in Teams are actually stored in folders on SharePoint, I would have assumed that you can share a link directly from Teams, or at least share it directly from SharePoint? I've done direct sharing from SharePoint and OneDrive and the target receives an email that will allow them to view, download, and/or edit the file depending on your settings. If you need to share files outside your organisation, that will be a SharePoint setting, I presume, since files in Teams are stored there, as mentioned above. Let me know if I've misunderstood the problem.32KViews0likes2CommentsRe: Deploying Yammer to 10,000's of colleagues that don't have corporate email
Karl_Brooks I don't know the detailed answer I'm afraid, but based on SharePoint Online learning and similar bits and pieces I've picked up, I would imagine that you can federate users by one method or another - I believe there are login options that use Google, for example. I have field workers in a similar situation so I'll be interested to see what more detailed answers gradually appear here.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: SharePoint Group Calendar web part not showing events from Teams calendar, App issue?
Christophe_Sarteel_FF Hmm, that sounds exactly like the issue we were having. adam deltinger The issue you mentioned that you know / is known about, does it prevent the web part from showing events unless they are after a particular period in the future? I'm working under the assumption, now, that events created perhaps 6 months in the future would show up, but anything created "now" won't show up?15KViews0likes4CommentsRe: Demo Tenant
HidMov Thanks for all the information! There's a lot to go through, I think, to be sure of what I'm doing. I might start with seeing if the company is willing to create a dummy tenant - or there might be one already that I can use. Thanks again for your help! Best wishes Jonathan6.9KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Demo Tenant
YadleyB Many thanks for your reply and hope this also finds you well. I'm currently working through Microsoft's Service Adoption specialist course on EdX with a view to improving our roll-out process (for MS365 stuff at least). I'll definitely do some comparing and see what the best option will be, and whether my employer will allow me to do it in a test tenant alongside our production environment or something. Thanks again and best wishes!7KViews1like1CommentDemo Tenant
Hi there I'm new to all this and historically I'm a support technician, but trying to get ahead with 365 as we're moving towards it. My main focus at the moment is Teams but trying to get a general handle on lots of stuff. I'm looking for the best way to create a demo tenant (including self-funded if necessary). My employer isn't a Microsoft partner so I believe the demos.microsoft.com option won't be open to me. Does anyone have any advice on this from their own experience?
