Why book this course?

As businesses scale up and expand, keeping track of files and documents can become more challenging. Even if you have digitised all of your archives, the process of finding, accessing and sharing files can be cumbersome and disorganised - a problem that only magnifies the bigger your business gets.

Microsoft SharePoint has been one of the most popular platforms for sharing data for almost 20 years, and like the companies it serves, it continues to grow and develop. We’ll teach you how to use SharePoint to store, search, present and analyse data across your organisation - and use it to seamlessly interact with other Microsoft Office products.
