Course Overview
Hi everyone. My name is Liam Cleary, and welcome to my course, SharePoint Concepts and Fundamentals. I am the CEO and owner at SharePlicity, as well as a Microsoft MVP. Implementing SharePoint Server in your organization is no small task. Knowing how a SharePoint farm works to choosing what to implement and how are an important part of overall implementation. In this course, we're going to walk through the basic concepts and fundamentals of SharePoint Server. Some of the major topics that we cover will include why install a SharePoint farm, using web and site applications, basic management using PowerShell and central administration, and using service applications. By the end of this course, you'll understand the basic concepts of SharePoint Server and where to start with your implementation. You do not need any previous SharePoint experience for this course, however, an understanding of how Windows Server and installing applications is important. From here, you should feel comfortable diving into overall management and installation of SharePoint 2016 with courses on basic administration of SharePoint 2016, SharePoint security fundamentals, on-premises installation of SharePoint 2016, provision and configure web applications in SharePoint 2016, and then configuring service applications in SharePoint 2016. I hope you'll join me on this journey to learn the basic of SharePoint with the SharePoint Server Concepts and Fundamentals course, at Pluralsight.
