Teams often face scattered files, missed updates, and disjointed workflows, especially in hybrid environments. Without a clear system, information gets lost, slowing decisions and creating avoidable errors. A central, organised platform can turn that complexity into clarity and keep projects moving.
SharePoint centralises documents, streamlines collaboration, and makes knowledge easy to find. ATI Mirage’s SharePoint training in Perth shows you how to use it with confidence and unlock its full potential.
What is Microsoft SharePoint?
Microsoft SharePoint is a web-based platform within Microsoft 365. It connects people, content, and processes in one secure place. You create sites, share documents, and manage information from any device.
Its core features cover document management, collaboration, workflow automation, and intranet design. Teams co-author files, track lists, publish pages, and route approvals with ease. Everything stays linked to your Microsoft 365 tools.
SharePoint protects information with permissions, versioning, and policies. Search surfaces trust content fast, and your people spend less time hunting and more time delivering results.
Why Microsoft SharePoint is Used in Business
SharePoint centralises documents and data, so everyone works from a single source of truth. Permissions and audit trails keep sensitive content safe. Leaders gain visibility without extra emails or duplicated files.
Integration removes friction across familiar tools. Libraries connect to Teams channels for quick access. Outlook, Office, and OneDrive work seamlessly with SharePoint. Power Automate moves approvals along without manual chasing.
One platform can handle a lot. HR teams use it for policy hubs and onboarding pages, while project offices track milestones and risks with lists. Service teams keep knowledge bases up to date so answers are always easy to find.
Real-World Benefits of Using SharePoint
SharePoint speeds collaboration with real-time co-authoring that cuts email clutter. Comments keep discussions in context, and version history lets you restore files in seconds. Healthcare teams can standardise procedures, while finance departments protect records, universities link portals with Teams, and government agencies manage retention with ease.
Research supports these benefits. Studies show SharePoint improves co-authoring, in-context comments, and version control. One found that 81% of users gained key content management skills, while 71% improved collaboration. The platform builds lasting capability, not just convenience.
SharePoint streamlines onboarding by uniting policies, forms, and learning materials in one place. Managers track progress with shared checklists, and teams get updates instantly. It delivers secure, centralised communication that keeps everyone aligned from day one.

Why SharePoint Training is the Smartest Investment for Your Workplace
Without proper training, teams can fall into common traps such as poor site structures, unsafe permission settings, and slow adoption. These gaps lead to wasted time, compliance risks, and frustrated staff.
Identifying missing skills like confident site building, content organisation, and governance practices is the first step toward fixing them.
What to Look for in a SharePoint Course
The right course closes these gaps with practical, hands-on learning. Look for training that covers building well-structured sites, managing libraries and lists, setting permissions safely, publishing content effectively, and automating routine tasks.
A good program should suit different roles so that administrators, project managers, and support staff can each apply SharePoint in ways that support their work.
The Outcomes You Should Expect
Well-trained teams design sites with logical navigation and ownership, keep content accurate and searchable, and secure records with proper versioning. They streamline processes, publish updates that reach everyone at once, and track progress with dashboards.

Best-Practice Tips to Get Started
- Map your information architecture. Define sites, libraries, owners, and audiences. Keep structures simple so they scale.
- Prefer metadata over deep folders. Use columns, views, and filters for clarity. Metadata improves search and lifecycle rules.
- Create reusable page templates. Standard layouts save time and build trust. People find content faster when pages look familiar.
- Set governance early. Agree on naming conventions, roles, and review cycles. Ownership reduces duplication and outdated material.
- Train team champions. Local advocates answer questions and model best practices. Peer support builds momentum.
- Automate routine steps. Use Power Automate for approvals and notifications. Small flows remove friction every week.
- Measure adoption. Track active sites, sharing, and approvals and target support where it matters most.
