FAQ's
We know team training comes with a lot of questions, who, what, how many, when, where, and sometimes even why. To save you a few clicks (and a few minutes), we’ve pulled together the most common ones we get from other HR managers, L&D teams, and people just like you.
Where can this Microsoft SharePoint Introduction training be delivered?
Training can be delivered directly at your workplace, online with live facilitation, or as a hybrid. Each option is designed to be interactive and practical, so your staff get hands-on learning whether they’re in the room or joining remotely.
How many staff can attend a Microsoft SharePoint Introduction training session?
Small to medium groups work best, as participants get more opportunity to practise and ask questions. We’ll provide advice on the ideal group size, but we can adjust to suit your team. The priority is to make sure learning stays practical and accessible.
Can we schedule the Microsoft SharePoint Introduction training at a time that suits us?
Yes, we can arrange the training at a time that minimises disruption to your work. Some organisations choose a compact half-day overview, while others prefer a full-day course for more in-depth exploration. We can also split sessions across several dates if that works better for your team.
What will my team be able to do after the Microsoft SharePoint Introduction course?
Participants will understand the fundamentals of SharePoint, including how to build site pages and components, manage permissions, and collaborate on documents. They’ll also learn how to use SharePoint to improve teamwork and keep information organised. By the end, they’ll feel comfortable using SharePoint as part of their everyday workflow.
Do participants need any prior knowledge of Microsoft SharePoint?
No prior knowledge is required for this introductory course. We’ll start with the basics and gradually build confidence as participants get familiar with the tools.
Can the Microsoft SharePoint Introduction training content be customised to our needs?
Yes. If your organisation already uses SharePoint for specific projects or processes, we can adapt the content to focus on those. Tailoring the course helps staff see how SharePoint can directly support their roles.
Will staff receive a certificate of completion?
Yes, each participant will receive a certificate at the end of the course. This provides recognition of their achievement and can be shared internally or externally.
