This tutorial was created by The Quintessential Pro to guide the reader on how to use this Powerful Productivity Tool. The application presented in this guide was the current version of Google Calendar at the time of creation. For the sake of simplicity, please note that the author presented a step-by-step guide using Google Chrome on a Windows 8.1 computer, as the tutorial may look differently as when using the same on a Mac PC or the app on a mobile device.
The purpose of this guide is to educate and provide information. Every effort has been made to ensure that data are as complete and accurate as possible. The author has nonetheless prepared this with the greatest of care.
