The Container Method™: SharePoint Essentials for End Users teaches end users how to confidently navigate, share, and collaborate. Build core skills to find, manage, and use documents effectively in your day-to-day work.

Overview

The Container Method™: SharePoint Essentials for End Users takes a refreshingly simple approach to learning SharePoint.

Instead of jumping straight into menus and settings, you’ll start with a mental model — The Container Method™ — that shows you how SharePoint fits together and why it works the way it does.

Once that clicks, the rest falls into place: you’ll finally understand sites, libraries, folders, metadata, and views — and how they all work together to keep content organised and easy to find.

This course is perfect for everyday users who want clarity and confidence, not complexity.

What You'll Learn

✅ How to confidently navigate SharePoint’s modern interface
✅ The difference between sites, libraries, folders, and metadata — and when to use each
✅ How to add, organise, and share documents the right way
✅ How to collaborate in real time using Teams and SharePoint together
✅ How to search, filter, and find what you need instantly
✅ How to work with confidence and avoid common mistakes

Who This Course is For

This course is designed for:

  • End users who want to finally understand SharePoint

  • Team members storing and sharing documents daily

  • Managers and coordinators setting up simple team sites

  • Anyone who’s ever said, “I just don’t get SharePoint!”

Whether you’re brand new or have been using SharePoint for years without clarity, this course gives you the foundation you’ve been missing.
