The I.T. Trainer

Be honest... how many 'accidental' duplicates do you have in your shared folders right now? 📁👀

We’ve all been there. You try to open a file in SharePoint, but someone else is in it. You save a local copy named 'v2_FINAL_actual_final.xlsx'. 😉 Then OneDrive decides to sync everything at once, and suddenly your team is working across three different dimensions of reality. 🌀

If Microsoft 365 sometimes feels like it's running you, instead of you running it, you are definitely not alone!

Which software do you or your staff struggle with?
🟢 Excel? (Formula errors giving you nightmares?)
☁️ OneDrive? (Where did that file actually go?)
👥 SharePoint? (Is it a collaborative dream or a digital labyrinth?)
⚙️ Your own Company's software ystems?

We can help! We don't do boring, jargon-filled lectures. We provide practical, tailored, very interactive training that actually sticks (and keeps everyone awake!).

Stop guessing and find out exactly where your team needs a boost. Take one of our FREE Training Needs Analysis today: https://the-it-trainer.co.uk/online-tna/

Ever stared at an Excel spreadsheet for so long that the little green boxes start blinking back at you? 💻🥴 Or maybe your team's SharePoint looks less like an organised hub and more like a digital junk drawer?

We get it. Microsoft 365 is brilliant, but only when you actually know how to use it without wanting to throw your laptop out the window! 🪟✈️

Tell us the truth, which software do you or your staff struggle with the most?
📊 Excel?
☁️ OneDrive?
🏛️ SharePoint?
🖥️ Your own Company's software systems?

If you answered "all of the above" (or just breathed a heavy sigh), we can help!

We break down the tech stuff into simple, fun, and easy-to-understand chunks, so your team can work faster, smarter, and with way fewer headaches.

Happy Fun Friday from The IT Trainer! 🦘

It is finally the weekend, and we’re signing off with a bit of a laugh (or a groan, depending on your taste in puns). One of our Sheffield clients who is obviously working on his comedy routine shared this joke with us yesterday:

"What's the difference between a Kangaroo and a Kangaroot?"

Answer:
"One is a jumpy animal which comes from Australia, and the other is a bloke from Newcastle stuck in a lift!"

Can you do better?
Drop your best (or worst) jokes in the comments below! 👇
Have a great weekend everyone!
