SharePoint Training
Windows SharePoint Services combines familiar office tools, adds the latest technology, and extends the functionality of applications and the web into a single environment to share information and collaborate with colleagues, no matter where you are or how you access the information. We offer Harpoon courses for beginners and those who are not necessarily IT tech professionals, but are responsible for day to day management of a SharePoint site within their organization.
Custom training is also available - email training@ualberta.ca for details.
