This session is about how modern SharePoint sites are actually built, and why that matters for records. Classic SharePoint pushed deep subsite trees and nested folders. Modern SharePoint is the opposite: flat structures, hubs that connect sites, metadata instead of folders, and search that works. The guiding idea is simple - **site design is records design**, because you can only manage, retain, protect or dispose of content that people can find.
Use this handout as a reference when you sit at a site-design table in your own organisation. You do not need to build sites; you need to know enough
