If you are a new or an existing SharePoint user, this course will provide you with the skills you need to work within and manage SharePoint sites. Begin with an introduction to SharePoint versions, layout, and navigation, in addition to SharePoint basics such as list and library views. Then learn to work with sites and page content including wiki pages and practice working within forms libraries, creating InfoPath forms, and managing site columns and content types. Finally, experience SharePoint integration with Office applications, manage SharePoint site permissions, and participate in user communities.
During the second part of the course, learn the fundamentals of managing SharePoint sites. Create custom workflows, learn to use content approval settings, and work with Metadata.

With these new skills, manage comprehensive sections on using the Document ID Service, document sets, publishing to a server, and configuring and consuming site search results.
