SharePoint 2010 Advanced Core Features only at Interface

This course is for anyone who needs a deep, hands-on knowledge and experience with the full features and benefits of SharePoint: to know how best to use SharePoint, to create sites and site collections, and to plan and design collaboration, intranet and Internet sites for maximum adoption. Advanced and “Power” users SharePoint Managers Enterprise-level planners Project managers Webmasters and Web content development teams. Note: Server Administrators and .NET Application Developers: this course is not about installation or about writing code, but it is an excellent choice to bring you up to speed on the full feature set of SharePoint.

We do not require previous SharePoint knowledge. We expect you are very familiar with Microsoft Office. ​

Most SharePoint training courses start off learning piece by piece: here is a list. Next, here is a library. Next, here is a web part. Or they focus on one particular piece of SharePoint – such as its document management features – leaving you lacking a full understanding of what SharePoint really is.
