Australian Community SharePoint Conference 2011
On behalf of the Australian Community SharePoint Conference team, I'd like to extend a special thank you to the conference speakers, sponsors, delegates and other people involved in making this year's event a huge success. I'm also pleased to announce that planning for next year's event is well underway and I hope to see you all back again next year!
Debbie Ireland - Conference Convenor
Next year, we'll be holding the Australian Community SharePoint Conference earlier in the year, estimated 9th and 10th March, 2011. We will be advising all attendees from the 2010 conference once further details are in place. In terms of next year's conference location, we'll also be announcing that soon. As of now, and based on the Conference Poll results (to the right of page on the MYSPC Portal site), Sydney is the favoured location!
Accessing the Conference (myspc) Portal Site
For those who attended the 2010 event, go to : http://myspc.sharepointconference.com.au and enter the user name and password provided on your registration form. This will give you access to the main portal where you will find information about the conference and community. If you still haven't provided feedback, please do. To access the evaluation system, navigate to the 'Session Selection and Evaluation' site. Go to this, and select the sessions you attended, you can then go to “my sessions” and rate each of the sessions.
We really appreciate the feedback on content, speaker and demonstrations – all of which will help us build a better event next year!
Accessing your Conference Personal Site
We've received a number of enquiries from conference delegates in regards to accessing their personal sites. In order to access your own personal site, you'll need to have the unique conference attendee number that you received during registration - this number is the path to your own site, for example:
http://myspc.sharepointconference.com.au/sites/<12345>
If you have misplaced your registration number, contact us at support@spevents.co.nz and we'll reset it for you.
Also, a big thank you to Emantra Hosted Solutions, Australia, and Mark Rhodes for providing and provisioning this conference portal and delegate sites! Remember, your free hosted SharePoint site is available for 3 months from the date of this year's conference. However, if you wish to extend the offer and keep your hosted site beyond that of the 3 month trial period, then, as a conference delegate, you'll receive a 10-15% reduction in monthly service charge, with an additional 5% discount available for any extended term agreement, that is, 12 months or more. For those wishing to extend their trial site period, they should contact Emantra Hosted Solutions directly.
Conference Presentations
Conference presentations from this year's event may be accessed on this portal from the Presentations Library. Note: presentations should be up on the site by Friday 25 June 2010. On popular demand we will be making every effort to provide videos of all sessions for the 2011 event.
