Microsoft SharePoint 2007 and Information Worker Training

Our Record

U2U has built up the past 5 years a strong position as a company in EMEA delivering SharePoint and Information Worker focused courses and workshops. Microsoft awarded several of our trainers with the Microsoft Most Valued Professional (MVP) status for SharePoint as they are very active in the SharePoint community. We deliver numerous trainings in the whole world, directly for U2U customers but also for Microsoft EMEA and Microsoft Corp their early adopters and Microsoft Partners. U2U trainers have been working with the latest 2007 version since 2005 and built up a huge amount of expertise on the subject, expertise they have always shared in the community (with the SmartPart as a perfect example of this) and compiled a number of intensive and very hands-on driven U2U courses and workshops on the subject.

There is a huge need for SharePoint training at all levels within organizations today. Therefore, U2U has compiled a variety of courses targeting each of these levels.
