Description/Agenda
This hands-on course thoroughly covers out-of-the-box features of
SharePoint and how to customize these features to make the most of
your SharePoint environment. The course begins with an overview of
SharePoint system architecture, then moves on to creating
SharePoint Web sites. From there, students will deploy navigation
solutions for users to easily locate data. Students learn how to
create new sites from scratch, as well as from built-in templates.
Web parts and pages are then added to sites to provide greater
flexibility in the way SharePoint is presented to users.
Included are techniques for using lists to promote information
sharing, creating surveys, managing tasks and projects, as well as
sharing calendars. Document and file management is also covered,
including setting up content approval, managing major and minor
file versions, and checking-out/checking-in documents.
Students will learn how to use built-in workflows, as well as how
to display database records on SharePoint sites using Business
Connectivity Services (BCS).
Comprehensive hands on exercises illustrate the concepts and
techniques presented, and provide practice creating common
SharePoint components.
During the last day of class, students are introduced to
third-party Nintex Workflow and Nintex Forms software. Nintex’s
enhanced workflow functionality is explored, and students create
workflow types not shown during the first three days of class.
Students have the opportunity to edit previously designed
workflows using Nintex’s intuitive design canvas. Nintex’s highly
visual forms system is also covered. Students develop enhanced,
company-branded dialog boxes and data input forms. These serve to
replace SharePoint’s built-in forms solutions. Students will also
create list-based forms that include error checking and user input
rules.
Students who are not interested in the Nintex Workflow
and Nintex Forms portion of class should take the 3-day
Sharepoint 2013 Power User course.

Familiarity with Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows desktop
