As part of our ongoing commitment to helping business and technology managers make better decisions, I'm very pleased to announce our first of two online courses focusing on SharePoint.

It's called "Evaluating Native SharePoint Services," and it's designed to give you the tools and knowledge to assess whether, where, and how to use SharePoint in your enterprise, based on the product's inherent strengths and weaknesses. You can download a course fact sheet here (PDF).

A follow-on course, evaluating the broader SharePoint ecosystem and enterprise-wide applicability, will come available in early December.

As always, these are four-hour courses, delivered in easily-digestible, one-hour modules. Our goal is to provide you the smarts -- right to your desktop -- to make the best technology and business decisions for your enterprise. If you think there are other courses like this we should be teaching, please send me a message.
