MS has recently released a Business User training portal which can be installed on SPS and offers course-like environment where every user can track the completion of chapters/sections that focus upon various portal tasks. Im glad that MS has finally catered to something that should have been catered to long ago.
I have had the personal opportunity to install, play & present it at a client engagement and I must confess that the simple idea of having your own course is fabulous. The IT has no worries of scheduling, ensuring attendance, tracking progress of the portal training, thereby saving much of already hard-to-get time of business users and also making IT budget for the year :)
Any Business User (with access to portal) can simply logon to the training site which may be a site within the enterprise portal or even another server (should IT be concerned about the space usage and/or the intent of training being different from live portal) and do training at her own time. The course offers a variety of materials: interactive, video, presentation. Below you will find a sample 'table of contents' from a live training site.
