Extra-Strength SharePoint Developer Training

I just got back from Silicon Valley where I attended the SP401 class given by Gorilla Training. My instructor was none other than Scot Hillier. This was a great class and I would recommend it to anyone needing to get up to speed on MOSS development and who has a basic understanding of dotNet programming. The class is 4 days long which is barely enough to cover the basics of each MOSS feature, but you still come away with a very complete picture of MOSS. It was good to see so many people taking the class. I think we had 17 or more people which leads me to believe companies are excited about MOSS and are serious about using it. (and using it right) There are so many new features in MOSS that companies will need to rethink their information architecture to get all of the value out of the product. The good news is that for current users of SharePoint V2, you can upgrade to MOSS without much fuss. Yes, there's lot of new stuff there, but users will still find the same functionality they expect after upgrade and things will mostly work the same. Upgraders should still think about how to use the new features in their organization.
