SharePoint: learn to work as a team
SharePoint has undergone a number of changes over the years, but at its core it remains a collaboration platform. It includes powerful features that make teamwork easier.
Document storage and sharing
The main functionality provided by Sharepoint is the ability to store and share folders and files. Essentially, documents stored on a SharePoint site are accessible to all users who have permission to access the site.
Our SharePoint business training will also teach you how to share specific files with staff or external clients. You’ll understand and be able to apply access permissions (e.g. read, edit, etc.).
Individual and group task coordination
SharePoint provides functionality to allow real-time or periodic co-authoring. You can choose to work on your documents alone before sharing them with colleagues for updates. This notion of co-authoring or co-editing means that you can add updates from other users when it suits you.
SharePoint includes a conflict resolution mode so you can easily select which modifications to accept or reject. There’s also a real-time collaboration mode, where you and your colleagues can work simultaneously.
These two modes are mainly available in :
- Word documents;
- Excel spreadsheets;
- Powerpoint presentations;
- OneNote web applications.
Shared collaboration tools
To make teamwork even easier, SharePoint has OneNote for note-taking and a built-in shared chat function. Our SharePoint training helps you to:
- set up a centralised OneNote notebook for the whole team to use;
- manage read/write permissions;
- share notebooks;
- set up and manage notification options for newly added or changed notes;
- start up the instant discussion feature on SharePoint Online.
Integration with many other applications
SharePoint is part of the Microsoft Office 365 family of applications. It can be used with all office applications, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and even Access, Publisher and Outlook.
SharePoint can be accessed from a web browser on a phone, tablet or a computer running Windows or Mac from anywhere in the world.
It’s also compatible with other Windows services, such as Microsoft Teams and Exchange. All of this makes SharePoint a great tool for businesses, as it helps to promote communication and teamwork.
Advantages of using SharePoint at work
SharePoint makes teamwork a whole lot easier, but that’s not its only strong point. Learning to use SharePoint also enables:
- better data management, using the many tools for organising and filtering data;
- optimised content distribution, with 24/7 platform availability and library structures that enable users to easily navigate to find documents;
- centralised management using an intuitive administration console;
- compliance with data security rules and standards using SharePoint security parameters that can be customised to suit your sector;
- simplified business process functionality, featuring process, activity and role automation within ready-to-use workflow solutions;
- powerful customisation, as you can create your own applications within SharePoint or integrate external solutions such as other office tools to go beyond the existing functionality.
