SharePoint 2010 Readiness Assessment

Three-day Assessment Offering

The next version of Microsoft SharePoint, scheduled to be released in early 2010, will provide users with greater collaboration, communication, and analytical tools.  Currently, existing SharePoint customers are trying to gauge the challenges (and effort) associated with planning for the implementation of this next version.  IT personnel, in particular, are faced with making the design decisions required to successfully migrate existing SharePoint 2007 intranet, extranet, or internet sites.  Are you well prepared for an upgrade?  What are your options?  How can you get specific answers to questions about SharePoint 2010 in your environment?  This three-day assessment will provide your organization with the knowledge and insight to make the right implementation and configuration choices in order to execute on a well thought-out SharePoint 2010 implementation roadmap.

Objective

The objective of the SharePoint 2010 Readiness Assessment is to assist your organization's technical and business representatives with the design decisions, configuration strategies, and planning associated with a successful SharePoint 2010 upgrade.  Using real-world examples and whiteboard sessions, this three-day assessment will provide your organization with the answers required for optimizing and scheduling the upgrade to SharePoint 2010.  These sessions are highly interactive and personalized.  Also, because they are held at your site, all interested members of IT and business teams are welcome to attend and participate in some or all of the discussions.
