The easiest way to "network" XL templates is to use the *MS Office*
procedure.
I'll assume that your organization has Office, where WORD is included.
NOTE ... this *must* be done on *every machine* that you wish to use to
access the templates.
Close XL.
Open *Word*.
Then,
<Tools> <Options> <File Locations>
In the left column you should see, among others, "User Templates" and
"Workgroup Templates".
The right column of "User Templates" should display the path to your
machine's C:\ drive.
The right column of "Workgroup Templates" should be empty.
Click on "Workgroup Templates" to select it, then click on <Modify>.
Now, just navigate to your network's template location and <OK>.
You must repeat this on every machine.
Check out this old post where, at the end, I've included some comments on
the characteristics of these networked templates.

Is it possible to redirect the location of Excel Templates. Currently,
templates are saved to my c: drive, however I need to be able to access this
particular set of templates from several different computers.
