Introduction
Here at Resonate we love SharePoint and what’s more we love telling people about it. We don’t
have a sales force and we don’t want one! Our capabilities sell us as solution providers, consultants,
trainers and all-round SharePoint experts. Our tag line?
“We do SharePoint, we do it well and it’s all we do!”
Our founder and resident SharePoint expert Andrew Noon has been creating and delivering
SharePoint training materials for a number of years. Resonate are a consultancy first-and-foremost
and a training provider second. The combination means that we have the practical experience and
pragmatism from working at the tough end of the SharePoint product. Combined with the soft skills,
patience and empathy required to take you to the next level in your knowledge of SharePoint and
related technologies.
This guide starts with user level courses for everyday use, builds to power user courses for
experienced users and completes with the advanced development techniques required to become a
Zen amongst the most hardened of SharePoint developers!
Each course is available either as a dedicated course for your organisation at a place of your
choosing or as a shared course delivered at one of our preferred locations. Courses generally
require us to provide a virtualised environment for you to work in, this allows us to control the
environment, your access rights and maintain a consistent deliver between courses and individuals.
On occasion we will tailor courses to suit your requirements, often mixing and matching content
between numerous courses to find a level that suits you. However, we find that following the
course content gives our students the best and most rounded knowledge of the products and its
practical use.
Costs for course per attendee are as detailed below, prices are based on delivering the course on
your premises using equipment you supply. Our hosted courses run from dedicated facilities and
include all the equipment you’ll need*.

Scheduled Hosted Courses
One of the best ways we find to learn is to take
you out of your daily grind to a place where
nobody can interrupt your learning or our
teaching! We don’t ban mobile phones or email
but we ask you to respect the other attendees
by taking important calls offline and recognising
that you may have some catching up to do when
you return.
Our scheduled courses include hardcopy
manuals, computer equipment and
refreshments. You will work within a virtual
environment that will have been set up and tested before we start. Everything you’ll need to get the
most out of your time with us.
The following courses are planned to be held over the coming six months. This information was

On Premise Courses
If we run a course on your premises we require a room with adequate space, a computer per user,
an internet connection for all computers, a projector, flipchart or whiteboard and refreshment

in a remote session to a hosted virtual machine.
