ETS now provides a service based on the G Suite for Education platform, which meets the needs of customers of the Connect service. We have replaced the Microsoft Office365 platform with G Suite for Education for email & calendaring.
If you haven't used G Suite Apps, either personally or at a previous job, we recommend you review our guide on usability differences between G Suite Mail and traditional email services.
