Microsoft Office SharePoint 2007 for Intranets and Projects

Venue and date

The City Suite, Thistle City Hotel, Barbican, London , EC1V 8DS
Thursday 21st May 2009, 9.30-16.30

Course Outline

Many organisations with a strong commitment to Microsoft are moving to implement SharePoint 2007 (often referred to as MOSS07) as a general-purpose intranet/collaboration/document management application. As a result, intranet and web managers are increasingly under some pressure from their organisation to migrate their intranet to SharePoint 2007 and even defend why they feel it is not of benefit to the organisation to do so.

The objective of this workshop is to outline the benefits and challenges of SharePoint 2007 implementations so that intranet managers are better prepared to discuss these with colleagues in the IT department in developing a business case and implementation plan for using SharePoint 2007.

The main sections of the workshop will be

• An introduction to SharePoint 2007
• Supporting collaboration with SharePoint 2007
• Using SharePoint 2007 for intranet content management
• SharePoint 2007 search functionality
• Planning for a SharePoint 2007 implementation
• Working with Microsoft channel partners
• Future plans for SharePoint 2007
• Critical success factors

Who Should Attend

Intranet and web managers who are considering migrating from their current content management and collaboration applications to SharePoint 2007. No technical knowledge of SharePoint will be required.

Presenter

The course will be presented by Martin White, Managing Director, Intranet Focus Ltd, who has evaluated SharePoint 2007 on behalf of a number of his clients and is writing a report on the use of SharePoint 2007 for intranet applications.
