Hi everyone, my name is Vlad Catrinescu and welcome to my course on Creating a Workflow in SharePoint Designer. I am an Independent Consultant from Montreal Canada and a SharePoint Server MVP.
As you know, one of the benefits of SharePoint is business automation using workflows. With SharePoint Workflows, you can save both time and money as well as make sure that your processes are consistent! The best part is that by using SharePoint Designer, you dont need to have access to the SharePoint Server or have advanced SharePoint knowledge to start automating processes.
In this course, we are going to learn how to create SharePoint workflows using SharePoint Designer.
Some of the major topics that we will cover include:
- Out of the box SharePoint workflows
- SharePoint Designer "2010 Mode" Workflows
- SharePoint Designer "2013" Mode Workflows
- Integration between SharePoint Designer and Microsoft Visio
I hope youll join me on this journey to learn workflows with the Creating a Workflow in SharePoint Designer course, at Pluralsight.
