Description

ITS is now participating in the Microsoft Enterprise Skills Initiative (ESI) program. ESI offers our staff no-cost access to:

• Self-paced learning paths for cloud computing, AI, business intelligence, security and more.
• Microsoft Virtual Training Day events for fundamentals and advanced training on Microsoft Azure, Power Platform, Microsoft 365, security and other tools.
• Microsoft certification exams to verify capabilities and earn certifications based on skills mastery.
• Exam readiness resources to build confidence, including exam preparation videos and practice tests.
• Microsoft Learn Cloud games for engaging, immersive experiences solving real-world challenges that put your skills into action.
• Productivity workshops, which are live training sessions for practical skills in Office, Power BI and more.

The ESI program can help us build technical skills and knowledge of Microsoft platforms to support IT@UofT projects and initiatives. Each participant will have access to a learner experience portal to explore options and identify training relevant to your needs and interests.

Join us to learn more about the benefits and ESI program details from our colleagues at Microsoft.
