SharePoint
SharePoint is a suite of tools that facilitates collaboration. These tools include:
- Document Libraries that include versioning of files and a check in and out feature
- Picture and slide libraries that show thumbnails of the images contained within
- Shared tasks, contacts, calendars, announcements, and link lists
- Online discussion forums
- Reporting features and KPI dashboards
- Wiki libraries for documentation
- Subsites for teams, departments, or collaboration around meetings and documents
- Online access to Excel, Access, and Visio documents
- Ability to create custom lists by importing a spreadsheet
- Alerts that email you when things change
- Workflows that can be created by non-programmers
To begin using SharePoint in your college, department or division, read the information at the New Site Collection page and fill out the form linked on that page. Our SharePoint Administrator will visit with you to perform a needs assessment and demonstrate some of the features SharePoint gives you out of the box and will set up any training sessions needed to bring local administrators up to speed on the operations they will be performing.
