Want to get up to speed, fast, with PowerShell? SharePoint MVPs Dan Holme and Gary Lapointe join forces to accelerate your learning curve in this one-of-a-kind workshop, live and online. You’ll be working at full throttle, administering and automating SharePoint configuration and management, by the end of three intensive and highly practical sessions.

First, Dan Holme starts the engine with his PowerShell Jump Start. If you’re new to PowerShell, or new to using PowerShell with SharePoint, you’ll discover just how easy it is to use Windows PowerShell and you’ll learn how to learn PowerShell. Dan will introduce the SharePoint object model and the cmdlets that allow you to build and report the logical structure of SharePoint web applications, site collections, and sites.

Then, PowerShell über-guru Gary Lapointe takes the wheel, guiding you through the concepts and skills you need to move from the Management Shell to remote management and scripting. You’ll tackle conditional expressions, iteration, error trapping and more, and you’ll apply what you learn to common SharePoint administrative tasks.

Finally, Gary steps on the gas, with a session packed with real-world administrative challenges and the PowerShell solutions that solve them. When this journey comes to an end, you’ll be screaming for more, and you’ll be ready to take what you’ve learned back to your own SharePoint farm.
