New! New name. New content. New apps knowledge.

For Apple users, Microsoft Office is relevant not only to Mac users, but also iOS. As such, for 2015, those that go through the 2015 accreditation program will earn the title 'Microsoft Office for Mac and iOS Accredited Support Professional, 2015.'

Microsoft has announced that in the first half of 2015, it will release a public beta for the next version of Office for Mac, and in the second half of 2015, Microsoft will make the final release available. Not only will Office 365 commercial and consumer subscribers get the next version at no additional cost, but Microsoft will also release a perpetual license of Office for Mac in the same timeframe.

The 2015 accreditation course is updated not only with more Office 365 content, but also includes information about the next version of Microsoft Office, what you'll need to know to support it, and information relevant to upgrading from previous versions.

Learn. Network. Get Accredited.

The new accreditation program covers topics such as the new Office 2016 for Mac previews; installation; Microsoft Apps on Mac and iOS; Office 365 and Office Online; best practices in configuration, preferences, settings and use; licensing options for businesses and consumers; cross platform features; sharing documents with OneDrive, SharePoint, and more; troubleshooting and common questions; available support resources; and more. The accreditation is specifically designed for Apple consultants and techs supporting others using Microsoft Office for Mac and iOS, and Office 365 subscriptions. At the end of the course, attendees will be evaluated on the content presented, and those who demonstrate sufficient knowledge will become a 'Microsoft Office for Mac and iOS Accredited Support Professional, 2015.' Once obtained, attendees will receive an accreditation certificate from Microsoft, and be able to display the new accreditation graphic on their web sites and other promotional materials, as well as in their credentials.

Microsoft is finally fixing the Office for Mac suite.

Ms Office For Mac 2011 Updates

The company took the first step toward a very long-overdue update to Office for Mac with the launch of the Office for Mac 2016 preview. The latest versions of Word, Excel and Powerpoint mark the first major update to the Mac lineup since 2011.

The new apps aim to bring the Mac versions up to par with their Windows counterparts in both design and functionality. As with other releases, Microsoft is using the preview period to get feedback on the software before pushing out the final release this summer.

Being a preview, the apps aren't perfect but Microsoft tells us it expects the feature set will remain mostly unchanged and the user feedback will go toward making more minor tweaks and bug fixes. We've been testing out the new Office apps for several days now and can confirm they are a huge improvement.

And if you're curious about taking the preview for a spin yourself, you can download the apps from Microsoft's website. The suite is completely free while in preview (but will require an Office 365 subscription or perpetual license once they are formally released.)
