Share This Learning Path

This two-day instructor led course is intended for those interested in learning how to customize the look of SharePoint Server 2013 through the concept of Branding. Although some coding is involved we strive to keep it to a minimum in this introductory level course. Though we use minimum code you will be surprised at the ease with which SharePoint can be branded to your environment for internet, intranet and extranet sites. The level of expertise you gain coupled with the built-in SharePoint tools may be all your company ever needs for great looking branded sites.

This course uses an instructor led topic explanation, instructor performing detailed demonstrations then the student performing exercises to duplicate what the instructor demonstrated. This style of training is a combination of traditional classroom training and mentored learning. Additionally videos of the demonstrations performed by the course author are included with the course as a take-away.
