Sent on February 15, 2023
Hello,
Your Office 2016 desktop apps are being updated to Microsoft 365 apps.
This includes the programs you use regularly like Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
All Parks Canada computers will get this update in a phased approach over the next month, starting February 17, 2023.
The update will automatically install on your computer in the background. No action is required on your part.
You will know the update is complete when you see the modern Office icons in your Start menu (see illustration), or you notice a slightly different look and feel when using the apps.
This is not a major change. It is more of a visual update with some new features.
The main benefits of the update won’t be realized until you migrate to SharePoint Online and OneDrive (M365 cloud services) later in 2023.
For more information about this update - including new features in M365 apps and some FAQs - visit the M365 Info Hub.
If you have any questions, reach out to your M365 Champion (who was part of a pilot program for this update) or contact the Parks IT Service Desk.
Thank you,
Eric Bastien
Chief Coordinator of Infrastructure Transformation and Digital Operations
Office of the Chief Information Officer
