Yammer is a social network that is integrated with Cornell’s Office 365 and SharePoint Online services. Yammer can help you to work in groups more easily and efficiently, share knowledge, organize committee work, and find groups and interesting conversations to join. Approximately 4,000 Cornell employees have joined Yammer since it became available a little over a year ago.

CIT is offering two workshops in June to help users who are new to Yammer, and for those who want to take it to the next level. Follow the links to register.
