This is better than any other powershell training that I have done.

Search first, then ask..
As this is a few months old, are there any additional resources you would suggest? It would appear that I really need to use some PS scripts to make adjustments in my O365.

Don't learn PowerShell... do PowerShell.
Pick a week, and force yourself to use PowerShell for all your daily tasks (within reason, don't set NTFS permissions with PowerShell, that sucks). But need to reset a user's password? PowerShell. Find out if they're locked out? PowerShell. That kind of thing.
I rarely open Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC) anymore. I can do everything faster from the command line.

This book:
http://www.amazon.com/Learn-Windows-PowerShell-Month-Lunches/dp/1617291080
This is a great book and seems like most of the PowerShell community considers it the go to book for PowerShell.

I generally don't learn from a book,.. I have to do the task... Show me, Have me repeat it,.. Have me show someone else....
However,... the best resource I have for PS and cmdlets are scattered across the US (UK and beyond) - I can't always call on them (you) to perform a task...
However - I also know that with the amount of things that are needed,.. I don't aways have the time to sit down and read something and 'experiment'... I need it Now,.. or IT will hit the fan.

My experience has been that the more time I invest in PowerShell the more time it gives back to me. I've been building up a suite of tools to do common tasks and it has saved me a TON of time.
So I get it, sometimes you have to do what you have to. But most of the time there are pockets of free time, and over time, you'll start getting those pockets back plus interest!!
