    Nearly every organization already uses SharePoint at some level for simple things like document management, but many times all of the other things SharePoint does really well go unused. This webinar shows how to leverage features like discussion boards, task lists, shared calendars, roll-up web parts and more to manage most or all of your projects in one place! We discuss ways for providing self-serve status updates that automatically roll-up to the summary pages per each project (and even across all of your projects).    		 Eric

    Webinar-Manage Projects with Project Server 2010    		 In today’s project-centric work environment, the ability to coordinate multiple projects with distributed teams, and making high-level strategic decisions based upon consolidated project progress, risk and resource usage information is critical.

Dux Raymond Sy

    Webinar-Using SharePoint Designer 2010 in the Real World    		 This session provides real world use cases and guidance that covers when it
    is safe to let your site administrators use SharePoint Designer 2010 (and also
    when it’s not safe). In addition, we will discuss the different level of
    privileges that should be granted to different groups of people in your
    organization.    		 Asif Rehmani

    Webinar – User Interfaces of SharePoint 2010    		 SharePoint 2010 ships with a variety of functionality waiting to be
    discovered. You can easily build your collaboration based solutions directly on
    top of this platform without the need for any programming. You need just the
    browser to create your robust solutions with lists, libraries and other site
    components. But how do you know where to get started? This session shows the
    user interfaces of SharePoint 2010 and explains how easy it is to get started.    		 Asif Rehmani

    Webinar – Make the Best Use of SharePoint Designer 2010    		 Webinar originally conducted on 5/13/2010. Presenter: Asif Rehmani. This
    webinar starts with an explanation of why you would want to use SharePoint
    Designer 2010 instead of the browser to create your site components. Then the
    presentation digs deeper into showing how you can create powerful workflows.
    Subsequently, the last thing demonstrated is how easy it is to fetch data from a
    database and show on a SharePoint page. Along the way, there were many good
    questions that attendees asked and the attempt was made to answer as many as
    possible in the allotted time.    		 Asif Rehmani

    Webinar – Leveraging Business Connectivity Services    		 Business Connectivity Services allows you to both read from and write data

    SharePoint AND inside of Office applications, meaning your data is that much
    more accessible! * One of the big stumbling blocks in getting started with the
    BDC was the lack of tooling support from Microsoft. With BCS, both SharePoint
    Designer 2010 and Visual Studio 2010 have first-class support for building
    solutions with the BCS. What’s even better, many common scenarios can be handled with just SharePoint Designer 2010, without needing a developer or Visual Studio.    		 Raymond Mitchell

    Webinar – Augmenting SharePoint Designer Workflows with Visual Studio 2010    		 Generally the best story for creating custom workflows in SharePoint 2010 is
    to stick with the declarative and most productive option: use SharePoint

    achieve some business requirements. One common example is when you need to
    implement some sort of a loop. In this session, you’ll see what’s involved in
    creating a custom activity (action) in Visual Studio 2010 and deploy it to
    SharePoint so it can be used in SharePoint Designer based workflows.    		 Andrew Connell

    Webinar – Creating Workflows with SharePoint Designer 2010, Visio 2010 and InfoPath 2010    		 Forms and Workflows are important for automating business processes.

    create powerful data driven form composite solutions on your SharePoint sites.
    InfoPath gives you the ability to pull data from databases and lists, and create
    forms with data validation and conditional formatting. SharePoint Designer’s
    workflows let you then design powerful multi-step workflows centered around the
    form collected data, building upon the out-of-the-box reusable workflows and
    even import workflow designs from Visio! In this presentation, you will see how
    these tools come together to design workflows and route forms across your

    managers today. Its’ ability to support project managers to define a schedule,
    assign resources to tasks and track project status has been instrumental in
    contributing to project success. However, it can be a challenge for a project
    manager to share project information and collaborate with the project team with
    Microsoft Project alone. Microsoft SharePoint 2010 can complement Microsoft
    Project 2010 and address this gap.    		 Dux Raymond Sy

    Webinar – Modifying SharePoint List Forms using SharePoint Designer 2010 and InfoPath 2010    		 To display, edit and insert data into SharePoint lists, you need to interact
    with the SharePoint list forms. The out-of-the-box SharePoint list forms are not
    always sufficient. Sometimes you need to modify the existing ones or better yet,
    create new ones. SharePoint Designer has been a great tool to customize
    SharePoint list forms for a long time. Now in SharePoint 2010, you can use
    InfoPath 2010 to customize the forms as well. What’s the difference? Why should
    you use one tool over the other for this purpose? This webinar shows you how
