SharePoint Champion Class

This two-day course expands upon the concepts covered in the Basic Training series of classes by introducing additional concepts including list and library management, site management and permissions levels, workflow and content approval, Web part usage, and alerts. The course is designed for and delivered specifically to employees of an organization who are not system administrators or developers, but will become the "go to person" when end-users need help or forget how to perform a task in MOSS. Additionally, Champions will possess a more intimate knowledge of MOSS features which will allow them to offer advice to end users on to use MOSS features to accomplish their business objectives.

In the Basic Training series of classes, end-users are taught how to use the "out-of-the-box" MOSS publishing and collaboration features. However, they are not taught how to configure these features, including configuring lists and libraries, changing site settings, manage groups and permissions, manage site content and structure, and the use of Web parts. Champions are taught these concepts as well as how to troubleshoot common problems end-users have. Through detailed explanations, demonstrations, and many hands-on lab exercises, at the end of the class Champions will possess a good, more technical understanding of MOSS Collaborations and Publication concepts which will allow them to provide quality support and guidance to end-users.

Each attendee is given a detailed course handbook which includes detailed explanations of MOSS publishing and collaboration features in more technical 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.
