SharePoint 2010 Developer Content Published

Wow, we disclosed all the new features of SharePoint 2010 yesterday at the SharePoint Conference. I spent my day rehearsing my demos, then sitting in the front row of the keynote, then giving my talk, then standing at the SharePoint booth in the exhibit hall, then at a function for SharePoint MVPs. I didn’t go running in the morning like Steve Ballmer did.

Microsoft is making a significant investment for Developers in SharePoint 2010 and you will see it’s much more a focus than before. Here are some of the places you can read about developer information for SharePoint 2010.

    Will there be SharePoint 2010 developer certification exams?  Looking at the learning plan, I only saw IT Pro exams. Will there be practice exams available from the major vendors?  Try finding a practice exam for the WSS 3.0 dev exam, for example.  Is Microsoft doing anything to encourage the practice exam vendors to address this?

    Hi Michael, The Developer certification exams are on the second page of the learning plan. I don't know of any work Microsoft has ever done to encourage practice exams. Regards, Paul

    Regarding the 70-541 exam (WSS 3.0 Application Development), the decent, quality resources available are sparse. Another route is to watch videos and PowerPoint presentations on the topics and objectives.  I like LearnDevNow and find the price to be well worth it.  Also, Pilothouse Consulting is probably hands-down the best resource for training videos. Soon, if I have anything to do with it, there will be at least one MCTS/MCITP Training Kit for SharePoint 2010 by Microsoft Press. The next release has only grown in feature areas, depth, and breadth so there will undoubtedably be several exams and possibly specialty (elective) exams like the MCSE was with mail and/or database. As for practice exams, they're a mixed bag.
