So I just finished the new AIIM SharePoint Practitioner course.  I took it online, rather than in the two-day classroom training.  I have to tell you, I thought it was an excellent course.  There’s a clear ECM focus (this is AIIM, after all), but it’s really a very balance course, helping you understand what SharePoint can do for your organization.  The course is not too easy that you feel like you’re wasting your time, yet it isn’t so hard that you can’t get certified if you pay close attention to what’s being said.  Plus, there’s also a ton of content specifically centered on managing records in SharePoint – both in MOSS 07 and SharePoint 2010.

Next I sign up for the SharePoint Specialist training.  After that, it’s the Big Time – SharePoint Master.  Given my current schedule, I don’t expect to tackle the SharePoint Specialist course anytime soon, but when I do, I’ll let you know how it goes.
