Frequently Asked Questions regarding our SharePoint Training Classes
These questions and answers pertain to our publicly available classroom training. For information on our seminars and webinars please see the descriptions of each event.
What time do the classes take place?
Classes start at 9:30am and end by 4pm each day. We recommend that you arrive about 15-20 minutes before the start in order to grab a bite to eat and get settled.
How important are the prerequisites for each class?
Because each class focuses on a different area within SharePoint, the prerequisites vary. While there are no hard and fast requirements that these prerequisites be met prior to enrolling, we have found that students get the most out of the course is they meet the recommended prerequisites. The recommended prerequisites are listed under each course description.
Are these"Death by PowerPoint" lectures?
No. Our classes are described as "hands-on" and that is exactly what they are. The courses are a combination of instructor lecture with live demonstrations and hands-on exercises by students in the classroom with the instructor present. There are very little if any PowerPoint slides.
I am coming from out of town. Where should I stay?
If you like a list of hotels near the training location just contact us. While we don't offer hotel/training combination packages, we can tell which hotels we recommend.
Do I need to bring anything with me to class?
The only thing we recommend you bring is something to write with. Each student is provided with a pre-configured computer workstation and course materials. Continental breakfast and lunch are provided to maximize your learning time.
What payment methods do you accept?
If you wish to register online we accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. You can also pay by company check or purchase order.
Why do some classes say "SOLD OUT"?
We limit our class size to keep the student to instructor ratio very small. Rather than expanding the size of popular classes we prefer to add additional dates.
We have several employees who need SharePoint training. Do you offer on-site training?
Yes. Private, on-site SharePoint training is a large part of our business and one of the reasons that public classes are available every week. In addition, we also have hybrid classes where a company with several students actually hosts the class and allows SusQtech to sell excess space to the public. If you are interested in either of these options contact us.
Will I be able to ask about specific challenges associated with my own SharePoint installation?
Because these are publicly available classes the background and experiences of the students will vary. In order to keep the information covered applicable to the class at large, instructors will limit group discussions to topics with a broad appeal.
How do I get to the classroom?
Approximately 3-5 days prior to the first day of class, SusQtech will send out a reminder with specific directions or a link to a mapping service. Unfortunately we are unable to provide any transportation to training facilities.
