I WOULD LOVE TO ENROLL FOR THE TRAINING OF MS OFFICE SPECIALIST(365)

To earn the Microsoft Office Specialist: Associate (Microsoft 365 Apps) certification, three exams must be passed; there is no single bundled “training module” that must be enrolled in first.

Certification structure:

• The certification is called Microsoft Office Specialist: Associate (Microsoft 365 Apps).
• To earn it, pass three of the following exams.
• All three must be in different programs, and at least one must be a Microsoft 365 Apps exam.

Eligible exams:

• MO-110: Microsoft Word (Microsoft 365 Apps)
• MO-210: Microsoft Excel (Microsoft 365 Apps)
• MO-310: Microsoft PowerPoint (Microsoft 365 Apps)
• MO-410: Microsoft Outlook (Microsoft 365 Apps) – coming soon
• MO-100: Microsoft Word (Office 2019)
• MO-200: Microsoft Excel (Office 2019)
• MO-300: Microsoft PowerPoint (Office 2019)
• MO-400: Microsoft Outlook (Office 2019)

How to get started:

1. Decide which three applications to certify in (for example: Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
2. Ensure that at least one of the chosen exams is a Microsoft 365 Apps version (MO-110, MO-210, or MO-310; Outlook MO-410 when available).
3. Use Microsoft Learn, Viva Learning, or LinkedIn Learning for self-paced preparation:
   • Microsoft Learn offers free online training and learning paths for Microsoft 365.
   • Viva Learning and LinkedIn Learning provide additional video-based courses for Microsoft 365 and Office.
4. When ready, schedule and take each MOS exam through an authorized exam provider (such as Certiport) according to local availability.

For structured training and scheduling in Uganda, a local Microsoft Learning Partner or Global Training Partner can help organize instructor-led or virtual training and guide through registration and exam logistics.
