Training
Interactive Design & Solutions offers Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 training. We offer end-user courses where we can train your business unit employees to be immediately proficient in MOSS in just one day. We offer a champion class designed specifically for employees who will be responsible for supporting end-users.
Why should your organization consider Interactive Design & Solutions as a training provider?
- The instructors teaching the classes are actual Interactive Design & Solutions consultants who not only wrote all of the course material for the course they are teaching, but work on SharePoint projects every day. This allows us to bring real world SharePoint experience to the classroom and to be very specific in the demonstrations and lab exercises in our training curriculum.
- We understand that it is often difficult to send end-user employees to a week-long training course only to have the employees return feeling overwhelmed and ultimately forgetting most of what they learned. So, we offer one-day training courses for end-users which cover, and reinforce through lab exercises, the basic concepts end-users need to know to be immediately proficient in MOSS.
- When training end-users, we understand that we need to start with the "basics" and teach them only the concepts they need to know to be productive with MOSS in their particular business role.
- Our rates for training are very competitive.
- Also, we keep the training classes fun and entertaining!

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.
