"As a school Principal, I greatly value practical training that delivers immediate and measurable improvements in productivity. The "Working Sm@rt with Microsoft Outlook" workshop facilitated by Priority Management exceeded all expectations."
“I recently had the privilege of taking a refresher course on Microsoft Outlook, and it was nothing short of transformative. It was a wake-up call for me, realizing that I had been using Outlook for years, yet there was so much more to learn and exploit.”
“It changed my life really. I felt like I’d been baptized at the end- I really felt so much lighter and freer! I’m in control of my life, actually I can, I can work the way I want to work.”
“Enjoyed the session and got a few great tips and better ideas on managing emails and tasks thanks so much.”
“Working with Priority Management as an organisation, [I’ve learned] that it’s not actually about the computer programs. It’s about the way in which you use those to work together.”
“Went into the course thinking I would learn a few tips on using MO more efficiently, came out with a breakthrough on how I could be the high performer I want to be and still have a life.”
“They’re always there to support you and they’ve even made the Most staunchly paper driven people challenge what they do and find a way to be paper light, if not paper gone.”
“Outlook to me was just a repository for emails, but now it is transformed into a powerful automated planning tool. Thank you Mary! I also like how you consider typography when setting up the layout and solution.”
“Such a great course. Thoroughly enjoyed the training and learned so many new things that I know will benefit both myself and the organisation.”
“I had no idea of how much I didn’t know. This is a game changer for efficiency and organisation.”
“The Australian Chamber Orchestra has engaged Priority for 15 years to conduct Outlook training, which is considered an important component of our induction process to assist with productivity. It’s always a pleasure to liaise with Priority Management. As a participant, I found the online workshop to be informative, educational, fun, and engaging.”
“Thanks for putting on such amazing training sessions for our employees over the past 2 weeks, we have had incredible feedback about how valuable they found the Outlook training and how great a facilitator Dani is. One employee reached out saying it was the best training she has ever done, which is a testament to how good the content and facilitators are!”
“Mary was very knowledgeable on the material and able to answer any queries quickly and effectively, there are many strategies that I took from the training that will allow me to build on previous knowledge and be more effective working within Outlook.”
“A HUGE thank you for the OneNote training that I completed. Having completed courses previously, I was expecting similar basic content and a struggle to say engaged. I was pleasantly surprised by Marys knowledge and ability to engage all attendees from beginners through to more advanced users, covering a range of skills, including more advanced use scenarios. I learnt a lot and have already applied many of the skills that I learnt.”
"But also the programs were fabulous because they are really practical. It’s not just here’s how you use it. It’s really about how you embed it into your everyday work life which is what I like about it."
"Thank you Jackie so much again for putting together such an insightful presentation. As I mentioned, the feedback so far has been really positive and a few people I have spoken to in the office today have already made some tweaks to their default settings. Your presentation skills were some of the best I’ve seen, and I was impressed with how you were able to navigate between screens despite the technical challenges. Thank you again!"

Project managers are responsible for planning, executing, and delivering completed projects, meeting deadlines and staying within budget. The project manager is the leader of the entire project and all tasks at hand; they manage the project scope, the team members, and all resources and funding.
They are also responsible for risk assessment, delivering updates on progress to both clients/stakeholders and team members, and providing feedback to their staff on how to improve in future projects.
It is a highly respected role that can be fulfilled across all industries and locations. Gaining work experience or targeted education is incredibly valuable for anyone's CV, and will undeniably expand your career opportunities.
For some, undergraduate courses related to leadership and project management will offer several options upon graduation, including internships and entry-level roles. For others, a short course or vocational education will provide the most benefits and opportunities post-completion. It all depends on your individual goals, budget, and accessibility to education.
Priority Management offers courses with nationally recognised qualifications to give you practical skills and insight into proven project management techniques and strategies. You can undertake this training individually, or we can partner with your workplace for added support and accessibility.
