In college or high school, to succeed, you need the tools of your future profession. Students and Educators from qualified institutions can now sign up for their own FREE version of Office 365 Education, the cloud-based productivity tools already used by over 110 million students, faculty and staff worldwide. Office 365 Education includes Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote, 1TB of OneDrive storage, and Yammer.

Even better? According to a recent IDC study, Skill Requirements for Tomorrow’s Best Jobs, proficiency in Microsoft Office is at the top of the skills matrix leading employers are looking for. The study provides insight into the skills students need for the top 60 high-growth, high-wage occupations that will account for 11.5 million new hires and 28 percent of job growth by 2020.

Out of those skills, oral and written communication, detail orientation, and Microsoft Office proficiency top the list. A full 40 percent of employers surveyed for the study are looking for the communication, integration and presentation skills reinforced by Office 365. And Microsoft Office was number three on the list of skills most required by these high-paying jobs.

According to Michael Fischler, CEO of ThinkEDU, “Office not only helps students stay organized and get their school or college work done today, but also develops valuable skills that will benefit them when they enter the work force. We are thrilled to be able to make students aware of this terrific offering as well as supporting bundles that are essential for all students.”
