I heard you have discount price if people register early.

How can I get on your pilot group to get early registration discount?

Bharat,

We currently don’t have any plans to offer the content outside of an academy setting, but I think you have a great idea that we may want to pursue.

Thanks for the suggestion,

Hi,
I have one question.
If one is not selected to the academy or is not becoming a member for any reason, is it still possible to get content of lectures or notes or videos etc. from academy’s site( of course by paying for the contnets)?
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Bharat.

Aaroh,

Thanks for your comments,

1) We’ll create multiple labs and give you access through RDP, yes. The labs will have various setups, some specific to a particular task and some more general.

2) The collaborative courses are pretty much ‘locked’ to the extent that the course content is set, but how the courses are delivered is largely up to the facilitator. However, for self-paced courses and of course blog posts and articles, we’ll listen closely to the students to learn about what you need and want.

I’ll reveal more about prices later.

Terry,

I’ll let you know the prices later, but if you’re expecting $19 per month, you need to look elsewhere.

Hi .b,

I have been waiting for this! truly incredible and impressive ..

I have a couple of few questions:

1) The video shows that we do not need mega-GB laptops for developing and testing SharePoint solutions. Could you please elaborate on this particular topic? Do we need some VPN connection to remote server or something like this?

2) Can participants/students suggest propose a topic to the faculty related to SharePoint? or the course materials has a fixed contents?

I guess price would be nominal and not expensive as Ted Pattison’s “Critical Path Training”.

I just loved the concept of forums and faculty blogs. I am too excited and looking forward for these courses ….

Cheers.
