About this class

Microsoft SharePoint, in conjunction with the Microsoft 365 productivity and office automation suite, provides tools to create and manage a corporate intranet, facilitate content sharing and collaboration, and enable users to create, access, store, and track documents and data in a central location. Users who already have experience as SharePoint site members and owners may be ready to move on to more advanced site-building tasks such as using custom site templates, custom themes, applying advanced permissions settings, improving security, and preparing sites to support governance and compliance. Advanced site builders may be ready to undertake more advanced site management tasks, working in conjunction with their SharePoint Administrator to create and use custom site templates, term sets and metadata, manage information governance and compliance, and get deeper into SharePoint security configuration. This course focuses on these advanced site-building and administration tasks. Who should attend? This course is designed for students who already have experience creating Modern SharePoint sites and populating them with content, who want to learn advanced features to extend SharePoint’s capabilities, make information easier to find and manage, use SharePoint features to improve governance and compliance, and improve the security of information and services within the SharePoint environment.
