Now it’s your turn to apply other event types using Google Calendar. You set an out of office
response for next week. Then, you create a task to catch up on email the day you’re back in the
office.
1. Select Month view, then select Tuesday of next week and drag on the calendar grid to
next Thursday.
2. Select Out of office.
3. To avoid declining existing events if you’re using your work calendar for this training,
ensure “Automatically decline meetings” is NOT selected.
4. Select Save.
5. Make sure that the box next to “Tasks” in your “My calendars” list is checked.
6. Select next Friday.
7. Select Task and add the title “Catch up on email.”
8. Select Add time and set the task for 10am. Select Save.
NOTE: The ability to set an out of office response only exists within work or school Google
accounts. You won’t be able to carry out this task with a personal Google account.
