On Friday, March 31, 2023, our Microsoft Office 2016 content will retire and all Office 2016 Skill Paths and Topics will be removed.  If you no longer use Office 2016 Skill Paths or Topics, no action is required on your part.  This content will retire automatically.


For a complete of retiring Topics and Skill Paths, please see the Deprecating Topics & Skill Paths article.


However, if you are using Microsoft 2016 content, you will need to replace this content with updated Microsoft 365 (M365) by March 31, 2023.  


IMPORTANT NOTE: Not all M365 content will have a direct equivalent. For example, Word 2016 became Meet Word for Microsoft 365, Meet Word on the Web, and Tips and Tricks for Word.  If you need assistance replacing Office 2016 content with M365, please contact your Client Success Manager.
