SPEAKER: Andrew Connell, MVP

SharePoint 2010 introduced a new paradigm in the user experience: the ribbon. This user friendly control contains all the controls and tools available to users when interacting with SharePoint to get their job done. Developers can customize and extend the ribbon for custom solutions. In this session we'll examine the different components of the ribbon as well as how to create page components, asynchronous callbacks and prompt the user with intuitive dialogs. Best of all you can do all this from the sandbox and avoid getting admins involved in deploying farm solutions!

Andrew Connell is an author, instructor and co-founder of Critical Path Training (www.CriticalPathTraining.com), a SharePoint education focused company. Andrew is a seven-time recipient of Microsoft’s Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award (2005-2011) for Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) & Microsoft SharePoint Server.

As always pizza and drinks will be served courtesy of our amazing founding sponsor, Gig-Werks! And due to the efforts of our new Co-Organizer, Ryan Finnesey, our SWAG bucket has increased and now we have fabulous raffle items from Component One and others as well as from Telerik . . .

See ya there!
