Our courses can be run at your offices, at one of our training centres in London and Guildford or online.

Our online remote courses can be run using either Zoom or Microsoft Teams and have been designed to re-create the classroom experience as closely as possible.

It is a live training session using Zoom or Teams and the trainer is there throughout.

The training is still hands-on, so you do need to have the software installed on your own computer.

Learners can ask questions at any time throughout the day as you would in a physical classroom.

Yes we do.

We frequently run in-house courses for companies, and individuals who want to focus on a specific part of SharePoint.

SharePoint is a central digital library for all your Company’s documents and information. It lets you store, share, and collaborate on files with colleagues. It makes finding what you need much faster, keeps you and your team organised and makes sure you’re working on the right version of the document.

The primary benefits of SharePoint are its collaboration benefits.

  • It solves the common problem of endless email attachments and multiple document versions cluttering shared drives. SharePoint allows everyone to work on the same live file, avoiding endless duplication.
  • It has much more secure and controlled sharing options helping to keep sensitive information protected.

Learning a new tool always take a little time but once you have got the hang of SharePoint which shouldn’t take more than a few days it will make you more efficient by making things simpler to manage and control. For example, document management becomes dramatically simpler when you only have one or two copies of a document to keep track of.

Teams find the SharePoint significantly improves teamwork and simplifies
information sharing. Having a central information repository reduces
miscommunication substantially and allows everyone to access up to date
documents, see project updates, and contribute in one central, organised place.

SharePoint also contains a team newsfeed which is especially useful for distributed teams.

SharePoint lets you to create dedicated project sites where everything relevant to a specific project can be stored. It can contain spreadsheets, proposals, reports, meeting notes and other project documents in one place.

Its version control tools make sure that everyone is always working on the most up-to-date document and makes sharing specific files with individual team members or external partners simple and secure.

Yes, because it makes looking for things much simpler.
SharePoint allows you to search the names and contents of files using simple keywords which avoids the frustration of searching emails and messy shared network drives.

SharePoint’s has built-in version management. It automatically tracks every change made to a document and keeps a history of all previous versions. It lets you see who made what changes, and even revert to an older version if needed.

SharePoint lets you manage external link sharing securely. You can grant specific permissions to outside individuals, only giving them access to the specific documents or folders they need, without compromise your internal company files. Our training covers the best practices for safe external collaboration.

Yes SharePoint is designed to be a modern, more powerful replacement for
traditional shared drives. It’s other benefits like co-authoring, automatic version control, and improved security all sit on top of its ability to act as a central file store.

Yes its incredibly quick. Navigate to your document in SharePoint, click the “Share” button and enter the names of the team members you’d like to share with and that’s it!

Sharing externally is also still very quick. You can generate a secure link with specific permissions (like “view only” or “edit”) and send it via email or Microsoft Teams by right clicking on a folder, setting the permissions and inserting the persons email.
