End-User Basic Training: Collaboration
This one-day course introduces the Collaboration features of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS) to employees of an organization who will be sharing information, working together in teams, or using the MOSS collaboration features on an Internet-facing Web site.
The course is designed for and delivered specifically for non-technical employees who possess little or no Web site development experience. "Technical mumbo jumbo" is stripped out of the course entirely and attendees receive very basic but essential explanations of Web site and MOSS collaboration concepts along with demonstrations. The course emphasizes hands-on lab exercises which the attendees conduct at their individual workstations after demonstrations.
Each attendee is given a detailed course handbook which includes friendly explanations of MOSS collaboration concepts in "laymen's terms" which are covered by the instructor during the class. The course handbook also includes many step-by-step lab exercises for attendees to perform during the class.
Course Modules:
- Introduction to Collaboration and MOSS
- Document Sharing
- Announcements
- Discussion Lists
- Managing and Sharing Calendars
- Conducting Surveys
- Utilizing Task Lists
- Introduction to Blogs and Wikis
