Course Outline
Since the release of Microsoft SharePoint 2010 in May 2010 organisations
have been evaluating the potential benefits of SharePoint 2010 and
working through the application development and migration issues. This
course will provide a synthesis of the knowledge gained by early
adopters, and provide a good opportunity for attendees to exchange
experience and find solutions to current SharePoint management problems.
Among the subjects to be covered will be
* A comparison between SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2010
* An evaluation of the features of SharePoint 2010
* Using SharePoint 2010 for intranets and web sites
* How to develop an effective SharePoint governance policy

* Product options from other vendors
All about Google: regain control of search
to be held in the
Netskills Training Suite, University of Newcastle
Thursday, 31st March 2011, 9.30 - 16.30
Course Outline
Google is collecting more data and adding more services all the time.
For many people it is the place to start a search but more information
and more search features does not necessarily mean more relevant
results. Furthermore, Google's automatic personalisation and semantic
search all too often adds to the confusion. This hands-on workshop will
look at the latest developments in Google, how it works, and how you can
focus your searches for better results.
Topics covered will include:
* new developments and services from Google
* how to narrow down your search for more relevant results
* how Google personalises your results - help or hindrance and can
you stop it?
* Google and social media
* essential advanced search commands
* Google's specialist tools and databases
* build your own Google Custom Search Engine
You will have ample opportunity to experiment and try out the techniques
for yourself and Karen will be on hand to help and advise you. Exercises
are provided to help you test out the search features but you are free
to explore and try out searches of your own.
There are further courses later in the year, too:
