SharePoint employee onboarding template
A central hub for all team resources and needs.
About this Template
This SharePoint employee onboarding template eliminates the chaos of manual new hire processes. It gives HR teams a centralized hub where employees access everything they need, including roadmaps, team contacts, documents, and resources. Instead of overwhelming new hires with scattered information, this template guides them through a structured journey from their first login to their first milestone. They see exactly what to do next, who to contact, and where to find critical documents. For administrators, it means no more rebuilding onboarding sites from scratch or maintaining outdated lists. Deploy it in hours, not months, and create an onboarding experience that actually works.

Frequently asked Questions
How quickly can we launch this for our next hire?
You can launch this template within a day. Simploy import the template, swap in your content and branding, then publish. Most teams go live within hours, not the usual weeks it takes for traditional SharePoint projects.
Will this run on our current SharePoint environment?
Yes, it works across the board. Whether you're on SharePoint Online through Microsoft 365 or running SharePoint Subscription Edition (SE) and On-Premise, the template integrates without compatibility issues.
Can we customize this to reflect our actual brand identity?
Yes, you can use the Theme Builder to set your exact color palette and typography. You can also adjust individual sections through the Page Builder. There are no compromises on brand consistency.
What's the mobile experience like for new hires?
It's designed mobile-first. New employees checking their onboarding checklist from their phone see the same polished interface as desktop users. Everything scales and adapts automatically.
Can different departments use this same template?
That's exactly how it's meant to work. Establish this as your organization's onboarding standard, then each department customizes their specific content while maintaining the same professional structure and navigation.
Does it integrate with our existing Microsoft 365 tools?
Direct integration is the core advantage. ShortPoint Connect pulls real-time content from Planner tasks, Outlook calendars, and other M365 apps, so your onboarding hub stays current without manual updates.

We were spending a lot of development dollars, but things still weren’t how we wanted and every day wasted was a day closer to our deadline.
ShortPoint has enabled us to create internal SharePoint sites that are user-friendly and attractive for our multi-generational group of Associates.
Before using ShortPoint, I’d never have expected that a small team such as ours could deliver a product that looks as good as our portal does today.
ShortPoint reduced the time it took to rebuild our intranet from 3 months to just 2 weeks. It really is a must-have for every company that uses SharePoint.
Building and customizing sites in SharePoint was a very heavy lift. We needed a developer on every project and it felt like we were always doing things the hard way.
I had no idea intranet consultancy would become so big for us! And none of it would have been possible without ShortPoint’s incredible software and support team.
It was hard to find solutions to beautify customers’ SharePoint installations and give customers a visual impression of how a new intranet could look.
Thanks to ShortPoint, the intranet isn’t a pain point for us anymore. I couldn’t put a price on how much happier we are working with ShortPoint as opposed to our previous vendor.
Working with ShortPoint was one of the smoothest projects I’ve ever been involved in. What they created for us is fantastic, and we never felt an ounce of stress.
