Looking for a great way to jumpstart your l...@edu project or evaluation and help your school's administrators gain a core understanding of administering l...@edu? The l...@edu Administration Workshop does exactly that. During workshop, we will guide you through administering a domain you have enrolled in the l...@edu program. How is it delivered? Typically requiring just 90 minutes, the workshop is delivered virtually using Live Meeting, which allows desktop sharing enabling everyone to view the same screen. As few or as many administrators as needed can participate and there is no charge for the workshop. Additionally, this is a hands-on workshop, so school administrators will actually be the one's completing the steps during the workshop with the guidance of the Microsoft team taking them step by step and ensuring successful completion. This method is ideal as it ensures everything works in the actual school's environment and not just a demo environment.. What's required to get started? Prior to the workshop, schools will need to enroll a domain in the l...@edu program, which can be completed at: http://www.liveatedu.com Note: Schools are welcome to register a namespace that will be used for evaluating the service (i.e. liveeval.schooldomain.edu). Additionally, schools will need PowerShell and WinRM will need to be installed on a Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 machine. Thank You!
