Microsoft SharePoint
The file is in three places. Two of them are wrong.
Your organization bought SharePoint. Your organization emails attachments. Somewhere there are four copies of the same file with different edits, and the version in the library is the one nobody updated.
SharePoint fails in almost every organization for the same reason: it was rolled out and nobody was taught it, so people route around it. This class teaches it as a working tool rather than a tour of the interface, and the version control material alone usually justifies the day.
Operations and IT leaders use this where a rollout has stalled and adoption never happened. Government teams use it for records management and the permission structures that compliance requires. It runs across three sessions rather than two because permissions and site structure need hands-on time. Content is built around your own environment before delivery.
Content, examples, and exercises are built around your own files and workflows before delivery. Most groups train live online, and on-site in-person delivery is available by request. This class is available by request only, with a three participant minimum, and sits alongside our other Microsoft Office training.
This course includes
- Live, instructor led class delivered across three sessions
- Work built around your own SharePoint environment and sites
- Version control and co-authoring, taught as the replacement for emailed files
- Permissions and sharing done deliberately rather than by trial and error
- Digital learning materials and take home reference guides
- Certificate of completion for every participant
Description
The first session is orientation and libraries, which is where the value is. Sites, navigation, and document libraries with versioning, check-in and check-out, and co-authoring. Participants learn why the emailed attachment is the problem and what replaces it. Most have used SharePoint as a network drive and have never seen version history.
The middle is structure and permissions. Building a site that reflects how a team actually works, then permissions: inheritance, breaking it deliberately, groups rather than individuals, and the sharing settings that quietly expose things. This is the session that prevents the incident nobody wants to explain.
The final session is lists and integration. Lists as lightweight databases with real columns, views, and simple automation, replacing the spreadsheet three people are editing. Then integration with Teams and OneDrive, and the answer to the question everyone actually has: which of these do I put a file in, and why.

Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for this class and no technical background is required. Participants will get more from it with access to their organization's SharePoint environment. Teams that need the wider Microsoft 365 foundation first can look at Digital Literacy for the Workplace.
