Build a powerful digital knowledge base — structured notebooks for meeting notes, project documentation and team knowledge that everyone can access.
Book This Session →Microsoft OneNote is M365's digital notebook — a flexible, free-form space for structured notes, meeting records, handbooks and team knowledge. Notebooks can be personal, shared with a team or embedded inside SharePoint and Teams, with pages organised into sections, tagged, searched and co-authored in real time.
It's best used for meeting notes, project documentation, SOPs, onboarding handbooks, personal journals and any living document that needs to be edited regularly. L&D, project teams, executive assistants, consultants and anyone running recurring meetings benefit most. OneNote solves the problem of knowledge being trapped in one person's inbox or local files — replacing it with a shared, searchable, permissioned knowledge base that grows with the team instead of walking out when someone leaves.
A focused session designed to build real-world skills fast.
What OneNote is and where it fits in Microsoft 365, followed by a tour of the interface — notebooks, sections, pages and subpages. We create and manage notebooks stored in OneDrive and SharePoint so your notes live in the right place from day one.
Building an organisation system that survives real use: sections, section groups and colour coding, with pages and subpages managed cleanly beneath them. We link between pages to create a team wiki structure, and use and create page templates so recurring notes start half-written.
Free-form note-taking with typing, note containers and outlines, formatted with styles, fonts, highlights and tables. We pull in the outside world too — images, screen clippings and the OneNote Web Clipper, attached and embedded files and printouts, and even live Excel spreadsheets embedded in a page.
Making notes actionable with built-in and custom tags, To Do checklists and the Tag Summary that gathers every open action in one place. We then search across notebooks — text, images and tagged items — so nothing you have captured is ever lost again.
Sharing notebooks and collaborating in real time, inserting Outlook meeting details straight into a page, and adding a notebook as a channel tab in Teams. We close with the safety net — page version history and the Notebook Recycle Bin — plus exporting pages and sections as PDF or Word.
