Check out the Office Online Interactive Guides (click-through demos)....Feedback needed
Hello IT Enthusiasts! I'm on the Office IT Pro readiness team at MS and am always looking for impactful resources that make it easy for our customers and partners to get up to speed on Microsoft technologies. If you have attended past events (MS Ignite, Tech Summits, Build, etc) you are probably familiar with the many labs that we provide in our dedicated lab rooms, covering a wide range of topics (Azure, Office & Windows). We also have an inventory of Click-Through demos (aka. Online Interactive Guides), that cover a range of Office solutions. For those of you interested, please run through a few of these and let me know what you think. Do you like the "click-through" format? Do you like to learn this way? Do you prefer labs or Online Interactive Guides to see first-hand how MS technologies work? What products/services would you like to see? (The guides listed are Office focused but feel free to name any product) There are certainly pros and cons to both labs and Online Interactive Guides (labs mirror the "real" experience but take longer to complete and can be prone to more errors, while OIGs almost always work as expected and take less time to complete but don't allow for exploration within the enviroment and tend to get outdated quickly). Please let me know your thoughts on the below Online Interactive Guides. If the community finds these valuable, we will make them a priority and ramp up our current inventory with new experiences (Microsoft Teams, MyAnalytics, updated Office Pro Plus apps etc). Online Interactive Guides Thanks Michael KophsTake the Office 365 IT Pro Challenge (online quiz)!

Great Feedback! The app was originally designed for live events, and to get the payoff, we wanted IT pros to watch the video. We quickly found out that most quiz takers were interested way more in the questions than the supporting videos. I'll add a "skip video" option in the next release. Thanks!
