Microsoft Office SharePoint 2010 Server provides a wealth of services that you can use, customize, and extend to augment and streamline your business processes. This course covers these features and teaches you how to build on them to create business solutions. The beginning of the course orients you with the built-in capabilities and teaches how to customise them using SharePoint Designer. From there you will learn how to create custom forms using both ASP.NET and InfoPath.
