Microsoft SharePoint Trainings

Microsoft SharePoint: architecture, governance and enterprise administration

Microsoft SharePoint remains one of widely used collaborative platforms in French-speaking Switzerland. From the administration and architecture angle, SharePoint Online covers the creation and governance of modern sites (team, communication, hubs), permission and Microsoft 365 group management, application of retention, sensitivity and external sharing policies, connection with Microsoft Entra ID, integration with Power Automate flows and supervision via the SharePoint admin centre. SharePoint Server 2019 and Subscription Edition remain operated on-premise by some organisations for sovereignty or regulatory reasons, with hybrid architectures common.

In French-speaking Switzerland, Geneva private banks, Lake Geneva international organisations, university hospitals, cantonal administrations, pharmaceutical industries and large IT service companies structure and govern their SharePoint environments to host intranets, project spaces, HR or compliance document management and business processes. ITTA offers a SharePoint catalogue oriented towards administration and architecture, complementing the user and site owner catalogue available on the Microsoft 365 side. Our training is delivered by certified Microsoft 365 consultants active with Swiss and international clients.

Following a recognised SharePoint training on the administration side opens access to highly demanded roles: SharePoint administrator, Microsoft 365 administrator, SharePoint architect, collaboration engineer, Power Platform engineer, governance consultant, migration project manager. SharePoint systematically figures among the skills expected on the collaborative infrastructure and document management side in French-speaking Switzerland.

Whether you are a business user contributing to a site, a power user leveraging lists and workflows, a Microsoft 365 administrator governing the tenant, an engineer scripting SharePoint in PowerShell, or an architect structuring a hybrid environment, our Microsoft SharePoint training in Geneva and Lausanne covers the full spectrum.

The ITTA Microsoft SharePoint catalogue

Introduction to SharePoint 2019 is the natural entry to discover SharePoint in on-premise or hybrid environment.

It is the foundation for profiles starting in SharePoint Server environment.

SharePoint End User 2019 is the Microsoft Official Course (MOC 55293) user training. The programme covers contribution to a SharePoint site, library and list organisation, view and filter management, Office co-editing, Outlook integration, search use and basic page customisation. It targets collaborators using SharePoint daily.

SharePoint Power User 2019 is the Microsoft Official Course (MOC 55294) targeting advanced users and site owners. The programme covers site creation and structuring, fine permission and group management, content type and site column configuration, workflows, integration with Power Automate and Power Apps, and good practices for SharePoint site governance.

SharePoint Online Management and Administration (55370)

SharePoint Online Management and Administration (55370) is the flagship Microsoft Official Course for Microsoft 365 and SharePoint Online administrators. The programme covers the SharePoint admin centre, modern site creation and governance, hubs, permissions and external sharing, retention and sensitivity policies, Microsoft Entra ID integration, sharing with OneDrive and Teams, and tenant activity tracking. It is a widely used tool training to structure a robust SharePoint Online environment.

SharePoint and the publisher ecosystem at ITTA

Microsoft SharePoint fits into a broader Microsoft 365 ecosystem. The Microsoft 365 publisher regroups MS-102 administrator certifications and global skills on Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive and Exchange. The Microsoft Azure publisher is complementary for infrastructure (Entra ID, Storage, networking) and global security. The collaboration and file management sub-domain deepens document governance from user and owner angles. Microsoft Power Platform is very complementary to automate SharePoint via Power Automate and create applications via Power Apps. Microsoft Security and Compliance covers SC-100/200/300 certifications useful to SharePoint administrators.

SharePoint trends in 2026

SharePoint continues to evolve in 2026 with strong attention on governance, security and AI. Microsoft Copilot integrates into SharePoint and Microsoft Search to query indexed content in natural language, with strict respect of permissions. SharePoint Premium (formerly Syntex) brings document AI to automatically classify, extract and structure metadata. Governance takes a central role: site lifecycle, retention, sensitivity, external sharing, conditional access, blocking of unauthorised external tenants. Hybrid architectures remain common, with progressive migration from SharePoint Server to SharePoint Online. Our pedagogical content regularly integrates these evolutions to remain aligned with current practices.

FAQ

Which SharePoint course to choose on the administration side?

For Microsoft 365 administrators governing a SharePoint Online tenant, the SharePoint Online Management and Administration (55370) course is the priority target. For on-premise SharePoint 2019 environments, End User and Power User modules cover uses. For technical profiles wishing to industrialise, PowerShell for SharePoint Administrators is the dedicated specialisation. Our pedagogical team guides you according to your role.

SharePoint Online or SharePoint Server 2019?

SharePoint Online (Microsoft 365) is today the priority target of new projects, with a continuous innovation roadmap (Copilot, Premium, modern hubs). SharePoint Server 2019 and Subscription Edition remain used in some organisations for sovereignty or regulatory reasons. Our catalogue covers both versions, with strong emphasis on SharePoint Online and hybrid architectures.

Is PowerShell essential to administer SharePoint?

Not essential but strongly recommended for administrators managing large-scale tenants or industrialising operations. SharePoint Online Management Shell and PnP PowerShell allow site provisioning, mass permission management, audit automation and migration preparation. Our PowerShell for SharePoint Administrators course covers these uses.

Yes, the entire Microsoft SharePoint catalogue is available in-house, in Geneva, Lausanne and in virtual classroom, with a programme adapted to your tenant and collaborative maturity (governance, hubs, permissions, Teams and Power Platform integration, hybrid migration).
