Organise files, build team sites and share with confidence

This practical one-day instructor-led course introduces your team to Microsoft SharePoint and how it powers collaborative working. Taught on SharePoint Online – the version included with Microsoft 365 – so everything applies directly to the SharePoint your team uses alongside Teams, OneDrive and Office. It also pairs well with our Microsoft Copilot training.

Prefer not to travel? We also run this course as a live remote class via Microsoft Teams, taught by the same instructors.

Frequently asked questions

Is this course based on SharePoint Online or on-premises SharePoint?
The course is taught on SharePoint Online, the version that comes with Microsoft 365. The core skills – sites, libraries, views, sharing and permissions – also apply to recent on-premises versions.
Do attendees need SharePoint admin rights?
No. The course covers using and managing team sites as a site owner or member, not server administration. Attendees just need a working SharePoint login.
Can the course be delivered remotely?
Yes. We run the same instructor-led course as a virtual classroom over Microsoft Teams, as well as on-site at your offices and at our public venues.
Can the course topics be customised to our needs?
Yes – in-house courses are tailored to your organisation: your trainer builds the day around how your team actually uses SharePoint, with real workplace scenarios and practical exercises.
Is there an advanced SharePoint course?
Yes – our Microsoft SharePoint Intermediate course covers the next level, and you can browse all our SharePoint training courses. Advanced tools can also be taught as customised on-site days.
What will I be able to do after the course?
  • Create and organise SharePoint team sites
  • Upload, co-author and manage documents with version history
  • Build custom views to organise libraries
  • Share files securely with the right permissions
  • Edit site pages and post news
