Internet access is required to install and activate all the latest releases of apps and services included in all Microsoft 365 subscription plans. Note that if you are an existing subscriber, you do not need to reinstall or purchase another subscription.

For Microsoft 365 plans, Internet access is also needed to manage your subscription account, for example to install Office apps on other PCs or to change billing options. Internet access is also required to access documents stored on OneDrive, unless you install the OneDrive desktop app.

You should also connect to the internet regularly to keep your version of Microsoft 365 up to date and to benefit from automatic upgrades. If you do not connect to the internet at least every 31 days, your apps will go into reduced functionality mode, which means that you can view or print your documents but cannot edit the documents or create new ones. To reactivate your apps, simply reconnect to the Internet.

Your Microsoft account is the combination of an email address and password that you use to sign in to services like OneDrive, Xbox LIVE and Outlook.com. If you use any of these services, you already have a Microsoft account that you can use, or you can create a new account. Learn more about Microsoft accounts.

As part of signing up for a trial or purchasing Microsoft 365, you will be prompted to sign in with a Microsoft account. You must be signed in with this account to install and manage your Microsoft 365 subscription, or to use some subscription benefits, including cloud storage.

If you have an active Microsoft 365 Family subscription, you can share it with up to five other people. Each person you share your subscription with can install Microsoft 365 on all their devices and sign in to five devices at the same time.

To add someone to your subscription, visit your Microsoft Account and follow the on-screen instructions to add a user. Each person you add will receive an email with the steps they need to follow. Once they have accepted and completed the steps, their information, including the installs they are using, will appear on their My Account page. You can stop sharing your subscription with someone or remove a device they are using by going to your Microsoft Account.

Office 2021 is sold as a one-time purchase, which means you pay a single, up-front cost to get Office apps for one computer. One-time purchases are available for both PCs and Macs. However, there are no upgrade options, which means if you plan to upgrade to the next major release, you'll have to buy it at full price.

The Microsoft Teams Exploratory experience lets users in your organization who have Microsoft Entra ID and aren't licensed for Teams initiate an exploratory experience of Teams. Admins can switch this feature on or off for users in their organization.

Eligible users can sign up for the Teams Exploratory experience by signing into Teams from the desktop or web at teams.microsoft.com. At this time, enabling Teams Exploratory through mobile isn't supported. When they sign up, they'll be assigned this license automatically, and the tenant admin will receive an email notification the first time someone in your org starts the Teams Exploratory experience.

There are two possible experiences of Teams Exploratory: organizational or self-service. Starting late April 2023, users in organizations that don't have the organizational trial will be eligible for the self-service trial. Some of the instructions in this article will depend on which experience of Teams Exploratory your users have access to.

To see if you have users with a Teams Exploratory license, you can go to the Microsoft 365 admin center > Billing > Licenses > and scroll to see if Microsoft Teams Exploratory is listed. If it is listed, you have users with a Teams Exploratory license.

If the user doesn't have an Exchange license already, and the admin has yet to assign the Exchange Online license, the user won't be able to schedule meetings in Teams and might be missing other Teams functionality.

If the user already has an Exchange Online license assigned to them, and then signs up for the Teams Exploratory license, their Exchange Online plan will be turned off. The admin will need to turn the plan back on in the Microsoft 365 admin center.

If your tenant has users with the self-service Teams Exploratory trial, you need to use PowerShell to turn off a user's ability to install trial apps and services, even if trials were previously turned off.

A user who is assigned a license that includes Teams isn't eligible for the Teams Exploratory experience. When the Teams service plan is turned on, the user can sign in and use Teams. If the service plan is turned off, the user can't sign in, and the Teams Exploratory experience isn't available. You must have admin privileges.

If a user is running the Teams Exploratory experience, you can turn it off by removing the license or service plan. You must have admin privileges, and users must be on the tenant-based trial license.

If the Teams Exploratory license ends and a user isn't immediately moved to a subscription that includes Teams, they lose access to Teams, OneDrive, and Sharepoint after a 30-day grace period. After another 30 days, the associated Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint data is deleted. The user still exists in Microsoft Entra ID.

You can only remove users' Teams Exploratory licenses if they are tenant-based organizational licenses. For more information about managing self-service trials, see Manage self-service purchases and trials (for admins).

The self-service trial period begins when a user signs up for Teams Exploratory. The expiry date is determined per-user. Each user will have a unique expiry date depending on the length of trial period they qualify for and when they sign up.

The tenant-based trial starts when the first user in an organization signs up for Teams Exploratory. The expiry date will apply to all users in the same tenant as the trial period begins on the first user's sign-up date.

The end date for the experience is configured at an organization level, meaning it will apply to all users in the same organization. For example, User 1 signs up for the subscription on January 1, 2021. This initiates a subscription end-date of December 31, 2021. Another user, User 2, signs up for the subscription on October 1, 2021. User 2 can use Teams Exploratory for three months, as their end-date will be December 31, 2021 because they're under the same organization's subscription as User 1.

At the end of the trial period, administrators should convert all Teams Exploratory users to a paid license that includes Teams. It's vital to ensure this action is completed before the Teams Exploratory subscription expires to avoid any disruption to users' experience.

I'm in the process of applying for a sales position that involves consulting for sharepoint. Being completely green about sharepoint I was hoping to find a trial of sharepoint in the cloud to give it a try before my interview so I can gain a better perspective of what sharepoint can do. Can anyone assist me? If so, where is the best place to obtain free training?

You can do that, set up a free Office 365 trial like from here, which I assume will work for something like 30 days or a free dev tenant which is good for a year. These come with SharePoint Online, the cloud version of SharePoint. Here are some free introductory training resources -
