Office 365

What is Office 365?

​

Office 365 is a family of programs that you can use for word processing, presentations, communications, databases and so on.

 

The Department of Education provides this suite of applications to all students for use in their education, using edustar credentials. These credentials are provided to students by the ICT department.

1) Open a Browser (edge / chrome / firefox) and go to office.com

2) Log in using the @schools.vic.edu.au email address and password provided to you by the school.
