I'm presenting a session on Thursday 25th March 2010 at Southampton University. My session at 18:30 is titled: "Best Practice for Designing and Deploying Workflow using SharePoint Designer 2007". I'll briefly look at the out-of-the-box workflows that come with SharePoint Server 2007 and then how to use SharePoint Designer 2007 for building workflow solutions. The second session starts at 19:30 when Ian Woodgate will do a quick tour of records management in SharePoint Server 2010. There will then be a break followed by Symon Garfield and "What is SharePoint?" and the New Speaker Slot at 20:45.

I'm presenting a session this Thursday, 14th January 2010 at Intelligent Decisioning Ltd Offices at Nottingham. The session is on "Branding SharePoint Sites: Using the browser and SharePoint Designer 2007/2010". The first session will cover what's possible in 2007 and then after the break I'll briefly cover what's happened to branding in 2010. After which, there will then be some 'tales from the trenches' from Sam Dolan, aka @PinkPetrol, on SharePoint Designs and Nikki Ashington on Accessibility.
I have some SWAG that I've brought back from TechEd 2009, North America, to give away, so make sure you attend.

I’m presenting SharePoint 2010 sessions at the Swedish SharePoint & Exchange Forum (SEF2009), and at SharePoint Evolution Conference. (Beta 2 of SharePoint 2010 will be available this month, so make sure your register to get a copy). The sessions I am presenting at the two conferences are :
Swedish SharePoint & Exchange Conference 2009
Day 1: 16th November 2009
11:00-12:00 "SharePoint 2010 workflows without code" – Best Practices Track: Workflow in SharePoint 2010 has been revamped. The new SharePoint Designer 2010 can build reusable workflows as well as site and list based workflows. In this session we’ll cover the workflows built into SharePoint 2010 as well as how to build new and reuse workflows, the integration with Visio, and how to prototype workflows in SharePoint Designer for further development in Visual Studio 2010. More information on SharePoint Designer can be found at the following links:
Day 2: 17th November 2009
11:00-12:00 "SharePoint 2010 and Access 2010 – Better together" – SharePoint Nerd Track: Access has always been a great landing pad for data. Last year I did a presentation at the SEF event showing how well Access and SharePoint worked well together. Now the story is even better, so this session follows on the story. Access 2010 includes new performance improvement when connecting to SharePoint lists. In this session I’ll cover these as well as other improvements, such as, connecting to Business Connectivity Services (BCS) data and using Access Services. If you can’t attend SEF, then you can find out more about Access and SharePoint at the following links:
13:00-14:00 "Administrating SharePoint 2010 with PowerShell 2.0" – Best Practices Track: In this session you’ll see how to use PowerShell to administer SharePoint 2010. We’ll cover some basic PowerShell commands and then jump into showing how to do day to day administrating of SharePoint 2010 with PowerShell. Useful PowerShell and SharePoint 2010 links are:
-
-
If you’ve still using CTP3 of PowerShell 2.0, then you really need to use the RTM version which can be obtain from links on Microsoft KB968929 page, make sure you upgrade to the WinRM RTM version at the same time. (The RTM versions of PowerShell 2.0 and WinRM are automatically included in Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2.)

SharePoint Evolution Conference
More information of the two session I’ll be presenting will be detailed on this blog nearer the date. Of course by April 2010, I’ll know much more about SharePoint 2010 than I do now and I’m really looking forward to this conference. It’s at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference centre, which is where the European SharePoint Best Practice 2009 conference was held. That conference was a sell-out and I expect that the Evolution conference will also sell out, so don’t leave it too late until your register. 16/06/2009I'm presenting sessions at:
19:00 -20:00 This is a developer-oriented session using Data Views and ASP.NET controls with SharePoint Designer In this Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 session, you will learn how easy it is to create views of your data using the Data Views, also known as the Data View Web Part (DVWP) or Data Form Web Part (DFWP) - the Swiss Army knife of Web Parts. Then watch as a Data Form Web Part is combined with ASP.NET controls to validate user input, thereby maintaining data integrity. Please register to attend here: Registration site: http://www.clicktoattend.com/?id=138968 Event Code: 138968
14:30-15:30 "Branding SharePoint Sites: Using the browser and SharePoint Designer": If you are new to branding SharePoint Sites then this session is for you. The session covers the basics of branding SharePoint Sites and how the browser and SharePoint Designer can help you in this task. The session will cover such topics as content pages, page layouts, master pages and themes. Registration Fee: £150 Per Delegate 14/05/2009
