Course Overview

This session introduces Microsoft Edge as a productivity tool for everyday work. Rather than focusing on technical settings, the aim is to help users feel organised, intentional, and confident when working in the browser.

Using realistic work scenarios, you’ll learn how to manage tabs without overload, organise important sites with favourites, separate work and personal contexts using profiles, and reduce context‑switching with built‑in productivity tools.

By the end of the session, you’ll understand how to use Edge more effectively to support focused work, safer browsing habits, and smoother multitasking within a Microsoft 365 environment.
