Microsoft SharePoint: the collaborative platform at the heart of Microsoft 365
Microsoft SharePoint is one of widely used collaborative platforms in the enterprise. Integrated into Microsoft 365, it serves as the foundation for document management (libraries, metadata, versioning), intranet portals, project spaces, extranets and business processes (lists, forms, Power Automate workflows). SharePoint is now closely linked to Microsoft Teams (each Teams team relies on a SharePoint site), OneDrive, Power Apps, Power Automate and Microsoft Search, forming a unified collaborative environment.
In French-speaking Switzerland, Geneva private banks, international organisations, telecom operators, university hospitals, cantonal administrations, pharmaceutical industries and large IT service companies operate SharePoint to manage their documentary heritage, intranets, project spaces and business processes. ITTA offers the official Microsoft SharePoint catalogue, covering user uses (team site, contribution), owner uses (site administration, permissions, navigation, content), and integration with Microsoft Teams and Power Platform. Our training is delivered by certified Microsoft 365 consultants active with Swiss and international clients.
Following a recognised SharePoint training opens access to highly demanded roles: SharePoint champion, Microsoft 365 administrator, site owner, collaboration consultant, Power Platform engineer, information architect, collaboration project manager. SharePoint systematically figures among the skills expected on the collaboration and document management side in French-speaking Switzerland, complementing Teams, OneDrive and Power Platform.
Whether you are a business user contributing to a team site, a site owner structuring permissions and libraries, a Microsoft 365 administrator governing sites, a Power Platform engineer building applications on SharePoint, or a project manager orchestrating a collaborative Teams + SharePoint space, our Microsoft SharePoint training in Geneva and Lausanne covers the full spectrum.
The ITTA Microsoft SharePoint catalogue
SharePoint for Site Members (user contribution)
SharePoint for Members Site is the natural entry for any business user contributing to a SharePoint site. The programme covers navigation in a modern site, document reading and co-editing, library organisation (views, filters, metadata), SharePoint list use for activity tracking, announcements, integration with Teams (channel and SharePoint tab), search and notification management. It is the foundation to fully leverage SharePoint in user mode.
SharePoint for Site Owners (site administration)
SharePoint for Site Owners targets champions and site owners. The programme covers the creation and structuring of a modern site (team site, communication site, hub), permissions and group management, library configuration (metadata, content types, validation, retention), modern pages (sections, web parts, templates), navigation, news, and good practices for site governance. It is the priority target to structure a robust and lasting SharePoint space.
SharePoint 2019 Site Owner (on-premise)
For organisations still operating SharePoint 2019 on-premise or SharePoint Server Subscription Edition, SharePoint 2019 Site Owner covers SharePoint site management in the on-premise version: site architecture, classic and modern web parts, inherited permission management, libraries, lists, and good practices for migration to SharePoint Online. This course remains relevant for mixed contexts or before migration.
Microsoft Teams and SharePoint for collaborative project management
Microsoft Teams & SharePoint – Collaborative Project Space Management is the transversal training combining Teams and SharePoint to structure a project space: Teams team with channels, SharePoint tabs, document libraries, tracking lists (tasks, risks, decisions), planning, Loop and Whiteboard integration, governance and permissions. It targets project managers and PMOs wishing to industrialise their collaborative spaces on Microsoft 365.
SharePoint and the publisher ecosystem at ITTA
Microsoft SharePoint fits into a broader Microsoft 365 collaboration ecosystem. The Microsoft 365 publisher regroups MS-102 administrator certifications and global skills on Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive and Exchange. The collaborative tools sub-domain covers Teams, OneDrive and SharePoint from user and owner angles. The Microsoft Power Platform publisher is very complementary to automate SharePoint via Power Automate, create applications via Power Apps and restitute via Power BI. Microsoft Office 365 covers the global publisher. The collaboration and file management sub-domain deepens document management.
SharePoint trends in 2026
SharePoint continues to evolve in 2026 with strong attention on modern experience and AI. SharePoint Online remains widely used version, with modern sites (communication and team), hubs to federate multiple sites, site templates, and rich pages with web parts. Microsoft Copilot integration in SharePoint and Microsoft Search now allows querying indexed content in natural language (respecting permissions). SharePoint Premium (formerly Syntex) introduces document AI to automatically classify and extract metadata. Governance (site lifecycle, retention, sensitivity, external sharing) becomes a central issue. Our pedagogical content regularly integrates these evolutions to remain aligned with current practices.

FAQ
Which SharePoint course to choose to start?
For business users contributing to an existing site, SharePoint for Members Site is the natural entry. For profiles creating and structuring a site (champions, site owners), SharePoint for Site Owners is the target. For project managers combining Teams and SharePoint, the Microsoft Teams + SharePoint module is very relevant. Our pedagogical team guides you according to your role.
SharePoint Online or SharePoint on-premise (2019)?
SharePoint Online (integrated into Microsoft 365) is today widely used version and the priority target of new projects. SharePoint Server 2019 (and Subscription Edition) remains used in certain organisations for sovereignty or regulatory reasons. Our courses cover both versions, with strong emphasis on SharePoint Online.
SharePoint and Teams: how do they articulate?
Each Microsoft Teams team technically relies on a SharePoint site to store its shared files and documents. SharePoint is therefore the document management engine behind Teams. Mastering SharePoint allows better leveraging of Teams files (views, metadata, retention). Our Teams + SharePoint course covers this articulation.
Are your SharePoint courses available for companies?
Yes, the entire Microsoft SharePoint catalogue is available in-house, in Geneva, Lausanne and in virtual classroom, with a programme adapted to your tenant (governance, hubs, permissions, Teams and Power Platform integration, migration). Our team builds the specifications with you and organises sessions according to your calendar.
