Curriculum

The story of SharePoint alone is a complex one. SharePoint has a lengthy history with many versions hosted on local IT servers and global cloud services. This evolution from on-premises to the cloud has guided the visual appearance and functionality of SharePoint. So, understanding its history is essential for appreciating the diverse options for customising SharePoint’s interface.

In this module we will journey through the product’s rich history, leading us to understand the biggest impact on branding which was the move from the older classic user interface to the modern interface. You will also learn that although there are some changes that you can make in the web browser, you may also require a complement of free applications to aid your efforts.

  • Know which tools are required and which are optional for branding SharePoint Online.
  • In this module, our focus is on out-of-the-box updates in SharePoint Online for those with branding in mind. When we refer to out-of-the-box, we are talking about the menus and options available within the product for making changes without relying on additional tools. These range from local changes that impact your site to hub sites which allow your changes to impact all sites connected to the hub. Not only that, we can also make changes in the admin center of your Office 365 tenant, to implement an organisation brand.

  • Deploy an organizational custom theme for the Office 365 navigation bar.
  • In our previous module, we explored elements of a SharePoint Online site that could be customized without the need for additional tools. Although there was an array of settings that customize the theme and navigation for your site, we could not pick specific colours. We were only able to select from 12 available colours, which may not align to your branding.

    In this module, we will be showcasing the tools that can be used to customize the branding of a SharePoint site even further. Again, our focus is on the modern features in SharePoint, and we will be using SharePoint Designer 2013, the SharePoint Online Management Shell and Site Designs to customise SharePoint and propagate these changes.

    I was sceptical at first whether to enrol with Microtek Learning or not, however, I am glad that I did- I got everything that was promised (maybe more). The trainer was very patient and knowledgeable and with his effort and mine, I was able to clear the exam with ease! Keep up the good work everyone.

    I was recommended the ITIL 4 Foundation course by an IT professional who had completed the same course at Microtek Learning. The training gave me a thorough understanding of service management that I felt I could take back to my job as an IT Project Management and apply it to improve the value of products and services.
