We are moving from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013.
What is SharePoint? It’s a document management and storage system. This Wikipedia entry gives a fairly good overview.
Why should I care? Old SharePoint sites will be moved across to new SharePoint. This means you’ll need to update bookmarks e.g. the LR training form will move. Also mean that pages you visit will look different. But functionality will remain essentially the same.
When is it happening? The new sites are being created now and we aim to move over the vacation period, i.e. Dec 2016-Feb 2017.
Why???? Because SharePoint 2010 will no longer be supported. And Information & Records Management want all units and colleges to use SP2013 to improve document management across UC.
Looking forward to the upgrade. It is easier to use and has more functionality. Anne
