IW Mentor

Information Worker Mentor is an online training company. We specialize in SharePoint, Power Apps, Power Automate and Teams, with training available on-demand or live online. After teaching a SharePoint Power User class for several years, it became apparent that there were three distinct groups of people that took the class. Although it was not meant for beginners, people who were brand new to SharePoint signed up for the class mainly because we did not have a beginner class offering. By the second day, they typically had difficulty keeping up. The second distinct group were the intended audience. These were people who had been using SharePoint for at least a few months, and needed to learn more about managing sites, organizing libraries, and managing permissions. The third group were people who were already advanced users, and wanted to learn more, specifically about building business solutions in SharePoint using forms and workflows. Because of this experience and these typical audiences of people, this training is structured the way it is, now with separate classes for the three levels of "SharePointers". The classes are written and taught by Laura Rogers. Laura is a SharePoint expert, speaker, author and educator. She is well-versed in helping organizations make the most of their SharePoint environments using out-of-box functionalities such as workflows, forms and Web parts. Laura’s technical expertise also includes over 10 years of experience working with Microsoft’s messaging and collaboration systems. She has been named a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) for the past nine years. A seasoned author and speaker, Laura has presented at numerous conferences, user groups and SharePoint Saturdays, and she runs the Birmingham (AL) SharePoint User Group. She has contributed to several books on SharePoint 2007, 2010 and 2013 over the past eight years.
