You don't need a technical resource to support MS 365 since it is super user-friendly and mostly intuitive and since MS provides the technical support. You can find most things through MS 365 knowledge base or just by searching on Google.

Desktop support, the student help desk and other technical support folks provide some support for Office, but frankly that is primarily in terms of installation. Once the tool is installed, we have no real support function for the tool other than one another and the internet. That generally hasn't been an issue.
