Downloads for Continual Learning Program Participants 

Thank you for participating in the Continual Learning Program


Critical Path Training is revolutionizing the way you receive SharePoint training by introducing the Continual Learning Program.  As a participant in this program, you will be the first to be notified when our technical team of SharePoint experts and Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) create new documentation, whitepapers, and articles. It’s like having a team of SharePoint MVPs in your backpack.

So the training doesn’t end when you head back to the office.  It is ongoing and you always have access to the very latest in SharePoint information. We like to think of it as “Training Assurance.”

Critical Path Training content will be pushed to the Kindle e-mail address you provided when you received the device.  Amazon allows you to set a bandwidth charge limit for content pushed to your device. Any content that exceeds the limit will be sent to your "@free.kindle.com" e-mail address. You will receive a notification on the Kindle and a link to download the content will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Amazon account.

If you wish to no longer receive content from Critical Path Training and strictly download ontent from this page, remove the "@CriticalPathTraining.com" domain from the approved senders list in the Manage Your Kindle section of Amazon.

Below, you will also find links to whitepapers, articles and How-To guides developed by our instructors and technical team.  Because of the native PDF viewer now available on the Kindle, we have included files in the PDF format as well.  For assistance loading AZW files on your Kindle, you can refer to the support documentation on the Amazon website.

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 represented Microsoft’s first entry into Enterprise Content Management (ECM). In SharePoint Server 2010 (SPS2010) Microsoft has dramatically changed and improved their ECM offering by simplifying how users participate in ECM solutions as well as extending the capabilities of the platform.
The best applications contain a good measure of logging to assist developers in tracking down errors when things do not go as they were designed or when unexpected things occur. SharePoint 2007 offered developers all tools that were available in ASP.NET such as the debug and trace log. Developers could also write to the SharePoint log, known as the Unified Logging Service (ULS), but it required a little extra work in order to write directly to the log files. In SharePoint 2010 Microsoft added additional logging and debugging capabilities to SharePoint 2010 to help developers include additional monitoring and troubleshooting to their custom applications.
It’s no secret that SharePoint has exploded in popularity over the last two years. The number of SharePoint projects built in that time is astonishing. Unfortunately, the number of those projects that have failed outright or else run into significant problems, often leading to cost overruns and extended schedules, is far too high. In this piece, David Mann proposes an updated, somewhat SharePoint-specific checklist of items that can help make all of our projects run more smoothly
SharePoint development is hard, right? We’ve all heard that old chestnut pulled out time and time again to explain why implementations take longer and have problems. But guess what. It’s a lie. Sorry to burst everyone’s bubble, but SharePoint development is no harder than any other ASP.Net development and in some cases it’s easier.
Ted Pattison discusses the new user interface in SharePoint 2010 that is a clear and welcome departure from the outdated user interface supplied by SharePoint Server 2007.
