You used to be the one everyone else depended on to know where everything was. When they deleted an e-mail, you were there with an extra copy. You prided yourself on how organized and neat you kept your department’s information. Now, they make fun of you. They call you a pack rat and even you notice that you’re more than a little paranoid about losing a comma or someone else's changes to a paragraph in a document revision. Why can’t everyone else be just like you so that you don’t have to be the way that you are anymore? The new tools in Office 2007 protect your final documents and scan for hidden company information, while advanced SharePoint concepts like version control and workflow can improve your current processes for approving and routing documents. Come to this session and learn how SharePoint integrates with Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and Word to make managing documents easier and more secure. |

There’s a motivational speaker in all of us, but like the Wizard said to Dorothy’s friends, “they have one thing you haven’t got.” A presentation! Break away from bullet points and boring handouts and move into the new features of Office 2007 to market your ideas. Excel, PowerPoint and SharePoint work together to store presentations for easy callback and present information on a website instead of on a landscape, printed page for your internal audiences.
Go from raw data to the big screen using features like PivotTables, Conditional Formatting, and Presenter’s View. Link data between Excel and PowerPoint so you don’t have to update the presentation when the data changes and use the new eye candy available to you to turn your bulleted lists into full-color and animated design elements. The secret to inspiring others is an exciting presentation. Make your presentations pop using the new tools in Office 2007. A Live Meeting tutorial is also included in this session. | | In this 3-hour session, we discuss an instructional design model and teach you how to develop custom training presentations for different audiences. By the end of the session, you will know how to analyze your audience, design a training plan and develop scenario-based training modules that meet the needs of your users. Move away from ‘canned’ intro, intermediate, and advanced curriculum that doesn’t focus on corporate or departmental deliverables and into process-driven learning that demonstrates how the new tools in Office 2007 can improve the way they work. The result is shorter class times, higher retention of the curriculum, and immediate adoption of Office 2007 and SharePoint. | |
This 3-hr session is a great refresher for trainers and it is especially useful for people who do not present to large audiences as part of their day-to-day duties.

- How to connect with an audience
- How to control a crowd
- How to motivate an audience
- Change management techniques
- How to report your success
| |
