The Quickr Blog

Another self-paced workshop from the IBM Education folks, this time on Lotus Quickr 8.1:

This workshop helps you gain the technical skills to solve these concerns using IBM Lotus Quickr. It is a new Web 2.0-based collaborative content offering designed to transform the way everyday business content such as documents and rich media is shared and to enable more effective team collaboration. You will use the included connectors that integrate with popular desktop applications such as Microsoft Office and Lotus Notes to help businesses manage information in a security-rich environment. We will cover Lotus Quickr services for Lotus Domino, which use similar concepts but a different user interface than the Lotus Quickr services for WebSphere Portal.

The intended audience is IBM Business Partners, but customers will be accommodated on a space available basis. Attendees can participate in the IBM Lotus Business Solutions Catalog entry offering and be eligible for no charge technical support for 90 days.

This workshop is offered in multiple formats: traditional classroom, virtual and self-paced. All are no charge and cover the same content.
