S-729, SharePoint Governance - Planning and Oversight
Introduction
This 2-Day course should be taken before you roll out SharePoint, but most often is attended after you have already attempted the rollout with significant shortcomings. Governance is a broad topic potentially touching every aspect of the organization. This class will focus on governance of content stored and used within SharePoint 2007 and 2010. We will cover the What, Who and How of governance with an end goal of getting you a good start on your governance team and plan.
Labs: This class includes four team oriented problem solving labs to explore real world governance problems and to create a governance plan.
The course covers:
- Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 (WSS)
- Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007
- SharePoint Foundation 2010
- SharePoint Server 2010
- and in general, corporate and organization intellectual property governance
Who Should Attend
This course designed for anyone responsible for or supporting a new SharePoint rollout, or an existing out of control SharePoint installation.
Attendees should be potential members of a governance team and include leaders from corporate management, IT management, IT administration, development and training.
We highly recommend that you train your governance team as a single group. We also offer this class in a three day format as a private class to allow time for the team to create their first draft of their plan.
