Microsoft SharePoint Online End User Intermediate

The goal of this course is to provide you with the knowledge to use the more advanced tools of Microsoft SharePoint Online. Users of this level are more involved with customising apps to collaborate with a team with stronger emphasis on business needs and content. This understanding is also fundamental to Team Site Owners and Managers. The course emphasises hands-on experience, with a series of self-guided exercises integrated into the training. You will discover how to customise apps and modify their settings in order for them to control key business information. You will edit various types of web pages to arrange information and ensure it meets business processes and compliance. You will also identify custom features specific to SharePoint Online not available in the server edition that will improve team collaboration and management. Please note: Topics from this event are also covered in our five-day SharePoint Online Masterclass (QASPOMC) course.
